D221 Themistoklis Shield: I was on that ship back in 2001 in the Navy Open Week and as I remembered,the shield was the same of that Frigate ThemistoKles with a Standard missile on it,as Formion.If you like,save every shield to your computer to have them all.Also Hellenic Navy Commands have shields.On the shield,at the bottom was the motto "Μολών Λαβέ",which is English is "Come and get them",Ancient King of Sparta Leonidas said that to Daryush when the latter asked the Spartan King to surrender.The phrase refers to the arms of Spartan army.

Hi Odysseus Look at page one With the help from Novice I'd manage to be cleared out and I've already drawn Themistoklis badge in both versions. They are identical but the text in top is different. A/T for the destroyer and Φ/Γ for the frigate. Could you please translate what these abbreviations mean in greek and english

Hello! I am currently working on improving the Halifax class Frigate on the site, and was wondering if you could make the badge of HMCS Calgary (my hometown!) ?

Hi KimWerner! In Greek A/T is "ΑΝΤΙΤΟΡΠΙΛΛΙΚΟ,Antitorpilliko",because when those ships first designed,back in the end of the 19th century their purpose was to fight the Torpedoboats of the era.Φ/Γ is "Φρεγάτα",this term is also very old,comes from 19th century.In English you know it,"Frigate" and abbreviation could be F/G,letters are the same.Other abbreviations:
T/B =ΤΟΡΠΙΛΟΒΟΛΛΟ,Torpilobollo,Torpedoboat,Torpedoboot (latter in German)
T/K = ΤΟΡΠΙΛΑΚΑΤΟΣ,in English same as above.In German "Schnellboot".
K/Δ = ΚΑΤΑΔΡΟΜΙΚΟ,in English "Cruiser"
Κ/Φ = ΚΑΝΟΝΙΟΦΟΡΟΣ,In English "Gunboat",
ΠΠΒΚ = ΠΑΡΑΚΤΙΟ ΠΕΡΙΠΟΛΙΚΟ ΚΑΤΕΥΘΥΝΟΜΕΝΩΝ ΒΛΗΜΑΤΩΝ,In English Guided Missile Coastal Patrol Boat.In Greek Navy that term is used from the Esterel Type 32L,which had 4 SS-12 missiles.(I have done this boat,if somebody need it,he can pm me).
Υ/Β =ΥΠΟΒΡΥΧΙΟ,In English of course "Submarine".Note that Greek Submarines before WWII had the numbers Y# and after because of NATO they use S###.
Advise: Search in net for "Greek Keyboard" and save a picture of it to compare with the English one.

Hope the time of waiting was it worth. Here it is:
