What Greek military hero do you admire most?
#1
With all due thanks to the creator of the original Roman version of this:

I now ask: What Greek military hero do you admire most?

Myself - I have considerable admiration for Brasidas (the Spartan general of Peloponnesian War fame) even though we know so little about his short life.

Not far behind him would be Leonidas I (the king of Thermopylai fame) and Kleomenes III (surely the last great Spartan king?).
