Nicholas Zeppos (army general)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nicholas Zeppos was a general in the Hellenic Army in the 1930s. By 1936, he was the commander of the Salonica military district.[1][2][3] When tobacco workers went on strike to demand higher wages, Zeppos announced he would attack them with military force, including "tanks, airplaines and warships."[1][2][3]
