Ep. 27: Getting to Know Aris Velouchiotis & Napoleon Zervas
Hey Everyone!
On todays episode we will get a closer look at the lives of TWO people who are a big part of our story going forward. Thanasis Kalaras, (AKA Aris Velouchiotis) and Napoleon Zervas. They are both controversial figures in their own way, and they are both regarded as everything ranging from traitors to patriots, depending on who you ask.
Enjoy!
