Topic: Leonidas I



  
 King Leonidas
These three days of fighting are similar to the Greek resistance against Mussolini in World War II, where Mussolini had to ask Hitler for help and Nazi troops, which would have stopped the Allied invasion in Europe, were forced to divert to put down the Greeks infused with the spirit of King Leonidas.
On the way to Thermopylae he picked-up about 7000 more troops as had been preplanned.
After three days of fighting and having killed countless numbers of Xerxe's elite troops, they were finally overrun and the 300 Spartans were killed to the man, including King Leonidas.

 Molon Labe
When Xerxes offered to spare the lives of Leonidas, his 300 personal bodyguards and a handful of Thebans and others who volunteered to defend their country, if they would lay down their arms, Leonidas shouted these two words back.
From the ancient Greek, they are the reply of the Spartan General-King Leonidas to Xerxes, the Persian Emperor who came with 600,000 of the fiercest fighting troops in the world to conquer and invade little Greece, then the center and birthplace of civilization as we know it.
They mean, “Come and get them!” They live on today as the most notable quote in military history.
