Dear members of ROHC and members of the Hellenic Diaspora
THE GREEK ARMY NEEDS YOUR ASSISTANCE
As you know very well our country Greece is under hybrid attack since February 27th by Turkey along the Evros river. The hostilities are intense, 45 thousand migrant invaders have been repelled, hundreds have been arrested, Turkish military and paramilitary forces are rampant in the area actively assisting the invaders of Greek soil and the Greek Army and Hellenic Security Forces are struggling night and day to stem the increasing tide of Turkish led migrants, as well as Turkish operatives within their ranks.
Unfortunately this puts an enormous strain on the logistics capabilities of the Greek Army which through years of austerity measures, faces shortages on key equipment, such as jeep tyres, batteries, protective gear, ect.
The Ministry of Defence in Greece has set up an agency which is ready to accept non-cash donations of necessary equipment to ensure that Greek borders remain intact from the ongoing invasion. We call upon all of our friends and those who do not want to see the front line of defence against jihadist and Islamic fundamentalist forces collapse, to send donations of the equipment required by the Greek Army after consultation at the following Greek Ministry of Defence special agency which will coordinate this global effort.
The Greek Ministry of Defence, in its announcement (http://www.geetha.mil.gr/el/briefing-el/press-el/7540-apodochh-dwrewn-yper-toy-dhmosioy.html) of March 10th 2020, heartily thanks all those who contributed both materially and morally to the Greek Armed Forces. With the purpose of better co-ordinating the selfless donations, the Coordinating officer of the logistics System of the Hellenic Defence Forces has been designated as a liaison between all those willing to help the Greek Forces and the Hellenic Ministry of Defence.
You may contact the office by phone (tel 0030-210-6571247, 0030-6983491611) or by mail (email: support.branch@hndgs.mil.gr) in order for the Military to designate what type of donation in kind they would most appreciate, as no cash donations may be accepted.
We urge all of you and especially companies or suppliers of the necessary equipment who are willing to help the war effort substantially, to contact the above e-mail, and after specifying the approximate amount of the donation you are willing to give, be instructed as to what type of necessary materials this sum could procure and receive directions on where to deliver them.
Till now the Greek civilians in Evros have staged a great effort to supplement the rations of the Hellenic Army and Security Forces personnel, and they will continue to do so, therefore no perishable goods are required, but there are great strains on the procurement of other necessary equipment, as has been publicly stated by many Army and Security Forces personnel.
We expect that all of us will do our duty to Greece, as she is the only barrier between the Free World and Europe to the forces of Jihadism and darkness.
