72.147.222.31 04:32, 12 January 2007 (UTC)I was pleased to read of professor Mylonas. He my father and Aristotle Onasis were friends while growing up in Smyrna. When the professor visited Detroit on lecture tours, he was our house guest. I was invited to stay with him in Greece and take part in the digs at Mycennae, which I regretably did not do. I have kept 3 ancient Greek coins gifted to me by the professor.On one of my trips to greece he died the week before I arrived. My father on one trip visited Rhodes where he ran into Mr.Onasis, a conversation ensued wherein Mr. Onasis indicated that he would encourage me to visit him in Greece where Mr. Onasis had a relative whom he would like me to meet. Suffice it to say I did not go.My mother and I after my father passed were invited to the coronation of Constantine. I was very busy at that time ( I thought)and did not go although my mother would have greatly enjoyed it. I have enjoyed sharing my recollections as I enjoy thinking of my father and his friends.

Will take this on in the following days. Constantine ✍ 21:05, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
As usual, a thorough, well-written, and informative article. Nothing major to complain about, just some comments:
Tο 1919 γράφτηκε ως δευτεροετής φοιτητής στη Φιλοσοφική Σχολή της Aθήνας, από την οποία αποφοίτησε το 1922 ενώ συγχρόνως υπηρετούσε στο Tάγμα Προσκολλήσεως της Στρατιάς Mικράς Aσίας. Kατά τις προσπάθειές του να διαφύγει, μετά την καταστροφή, στη Σάμο, αιχμαλωτίστηκε από τους Tούρκους. I'm not totally sure what to make of the commas, but my understanding is that ἡ καταστροφή can only really be the burning of Smyrna and the defeat of the Greek army in Ionia: there wasn't any disaster on Samos for it to be referring to. Any thoughts? I suppose it's theoretically possible he was escaping back to the Greek mainland and betrayed by some locals to the Turks? UndercoverClassicist T· C 20:20, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
I will put this on hold, and have another read-through once the issues above are addressed before completing the review. Constantine ✍ 10:15, 19 February 2024 (UTC)
