British Soldiers Marching Through Greece, 1941. Second World War. '...the British force that had disembarked at Athens could only be a token offering to aid the Greeks. Hardly spared from the western desert, it was puny in strength. Yet forward they went to defend the land that had first known democracy...forward they went to meet once again the power of Nazi Germany'. From "Time To Remember - Operation Barbarossa", 1941 (Reel 2); documentary film about events of 1941, on the Eastern Front and at Pearl Harbour.
