Modern Greek military ranks are based on Ancient Greek and Byzantine terminology. In the army and air force, these names are often based on the unit or post that a holder of each rank usual commands. For example, a tagmatarchis is in charge of a tagma, which is derived from an Ancient Greek word translatable as "command", "order", or "class", and in modern Greek is a unit equivalent to a battalion in other armies; hence a modern tagmatarchis is a rank equivalent to major in other armies. Similarly, a lochagos normally commands a lochos (a word that originally meant "warband"), which in Ancient Greece was a 100-strong hoplite unit, but in modern Greek usage is equivalent to an infantry company. Hence a lochagos is the equivalent of a captain in other armies, and the modern Greek equivalent

  • Οι βαθμοί ενόπλων δυνάμεων της Ελλάδας βασίζονται στην αρχαιοελληνική και βυζαντινή ορολογία, παρότι οι βαθμοί αντιστοιχούν σε αυτούς άλλων ευρωπαϊκών χωρών. Για παράδειγμα ο λόχος αποτελείται από περίπου 100 οπλίτες όπως και στην αρχαιότητα με τον επικεφαλής αξιωματικό να ονομάζεται λοχαγός. Σε γενικές γραμμές ο κάθε αξιωματικός ή υπαξιωματικός ονομάζεται βάσει του σχηματισμού του οποίου διοικεί (τάγμα - ταγματάρχης, σύνταγμα - συνταγματάρχης κτλ) με τις καταλήξεις των βαθμών (-αγός από το ἄγειν = οδηγεί, ή -αρχος από το ἄρχειν = εξουσιάζει).

Likewise, the modern Greek equivalent of a sergeant is a . The suffixes -agos and -archos (or -arches), which are often found in Greek rank names, are derived from the roots agein "to lead" and archein "to rule", respectively. (en)

  • La struttura dei ranghi delle forze armate elleniche ha le sue radici nelle tradizioni militari inglesi. L'esercito ellenico segue la scala gerarchica dei gradi della NATO. La posizione di Stratarchis (Στρατάρχης, equivalente a feldmaresciallo o Generale dell'Esercito), è stata usata storicamente, ma non è più esistente. Venne inizialmente assegnato a re Costantino I per il suo comando nelle guerre balcaniche. Il grado venne successivamente assunto dai suoi successori fino all'abolizione della monarchia. L'unico ufficiale regolare a essere stato insignito del grado fu il generale Alexander Papagos il 28 ottobre, 1949. Nell'aeronautica militare greca durante la monarchia c'era il rango di Archipterarchos (greco: Αρχιπτέραρχος) equivalente italiano di Maresciallo dell'aria della Regia Aeronautica titolo conferito solamente al re di Grecia. Nella Marina greca il più alto grado della gerarchia militare è Navarchos (greco: Ναύαρχος), corrispondente al grado di ammiraglio e viene assegnato al capo di stato maggiore delle forze armate greche se proveniente dai ranghi della Marina. durante la monarchia vi era il rango di Archinávarchos (αρχιναύαρχος), titolo puramente onorifico, equivalente a grande ammiraglio della Regia Marina Italiana o ammiraglio della flotta, la cui titolarità era riservata ai monarchi greci fino all'abolizione della monarchia nel 1974. Gli unici titolari del rango furono Giorgio II, Paolo e Costantino II. (it)
