''Syntagmatarchis'' ((ギリシア語:Συνταγματάρχης, abbreviated Σχης)), sometimes anglicized as Syntagmatarch, is used in modern Greek to denote the rank of Colonel. It is translated as "leader of a regiment (''syntagma'')", and dates back to the Classical Age armies. However, the name is misleading in that the Hellenic Army retains very few regiments in its command structure. Thus, the typical responsibilities of ''Syntagmatarches'' are in staff positions, or as Executive Officers in brigades. Officers holding this rank should be addressed as ''Kyrie Syntagmatarcha'' (Κύριε Συνταγματάρχα). In the modern Hellenic Army the rank is superior to an ''Antisyntagmatarchis'' (Lieutenant Colonel) and inferior to a ''Taxiarchos'' (Brigadier). The insignia consists of a flaming grenade and three golden stars. The Greek military junta of 1967-1974 is also known as "The Regime of the Colonels" because most of its chief leaders were of Colonel rank, including two of the three chief leaders, George Papadopoulos and Nikolaos Makarezos. == Rank insignia == File:GR-Army-OF5-1912.svg|Rank insignia of a ''Syntagmatarchis'', 1908–1936 File:GR-Army-OF5-1937.svg|Rank insignia of a ''Syntagmatarchis'', 1937–1968 File:Army-GRE-OF-05.svg|Current rank insignia of a ''Syntagmatarchis'', since 1975 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Syntagmatarchis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
