The "Isaac-Solomos Memorial Initiative" bid farewell with unlimited respect and gratitude to retired Lt. Gen. Ilias Glentze, who as the Accountant of the 31st Assault Squadron, bravely fought the Turkish invader in the Pentadaktylos in the black summer of 1974.

Ilias Glentzes passed away on Wednesday, June 28 and was buried on Saturday, July 1, 2023 in his hometown, in Sparta, under the shadow of Leonidas and the Greek homeland.

"The motorcyclists had the honor to meet him at the monument of King Leonidas in Sparta, in the summer of 2021, during the commemorative march on the occasion of the completion of 25 years since the murders of Isaac and Solomon and 200 years since the outbreak of the Greek Revolution. And to cooperate in the fight for the liberation of Cyprus and Hellenism. Good luck, proud Ilias Glentze. We will continue the fight against oblivion, as we promised that summer. Until we carry the message of freedom to Pentadaktylos and Kyrenia. Immortal."
