The ranking of the new recruits of the 2019 series was completed last Friday, a day when the recruits from Sotira went en masse by buses provided for them by the Municipality in KEN Larnaca.
For another year, Sotira's new recruits have followed a tradition that has been around for decades and is nothing more than making an original haircut a few days before they cut their "first number".
According to one of the young recruits, they let their hair grow long enough and then put glue on it and after it dries they paint it in the colors of Rastafari. This tradition has been going on for several decades among Sotira's new collectors.

Happy term, then, to the new recruits!
Rastafari and Bom Marley
Rastafanism is the political movement that introduced a pan-African political consciousness in the late 19th century and its colors were green, yellow and yellow, as a variant of the Ethiopian flag. The movement developed in Jamaica in the early 1930s and has evolved into a global phenomenon, particularly thanks to its spread through the reggae music genre during the 1960s and 1970s and its embrace by international artists such as Bob Marley and Peter Toss.
