    The Hellenic Air Force (HAF; Greek: Πολεμική Αεροπορία, Polemikí Aeroporía, literally "War Aviation", sometimes abbreviated as ΠΑ) is the air force of Greece with Hellenic being the synonym for Greek in the Greek language. Under the Kingdom of Greece from 1935 to 1973, it was known as the Royal Hellenic Air Force (RHAF) (Greek: Ἑλληνικὴ Βασιλικὴ Ἀεροπορία, Ellinikí Vasilikí Aeroporía).

    Mine are not the best, but they are not too bad. I can think of lots of Enfields I'd rather have but instead of constantly striving for more, sometimes it's good to be satisfied with what one has...

    I've read a bunch on the hellenic air force but never saw E B A mentioned. I had one guy tell me E B A was the Greek Air force, but everyone else has no idea, and the majority have never seen the E B A marking before and thats coming from collectors who have been collecting Enfields for years. But i haven't seen any information to verify the greek/ E B A connection unfortunately. You would think that would be easy information to verify if that connection was the case. Im not saying that info is wrong, but I need to see some sort of proof before I can say definitivly thats what the E B A marking signifies.

    I appreciate you looking that up and posting that Alan. Its a clue for sure I think
