Phantis Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 http://www.ekathimerini.com/4dcgi/_w_artic...0/03/2004_40490 As Giorgos Voulgarakis takes over as public order minister from his Socialist predecessor today, a huge Greek-US military exercise aiming to address potential terrorism threats to the August Olympics is to kick off at an undisclosed location in Greece. A Public Order Ministry statement yesterday said the secrecy-shrouded drill will be code-named “Shield of Heracles 2004” — alluding to an obscure ancient Greek poem — and would take place over the next two weeks “in various parts of Greece.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
