The Greek Sailor from Hydra Who Became War Hero in Argentina

The Greek Sailor from Hydra Who Became War Hero in Argentina Plaque of Kolmaniatis, Hydra, Greece. Photo by Spilios Spiliotis As a Hydriot, I had been raised on a pantheon of grizzled war heroes Miaoulis, Koudouriotis, et al with a focus on their virtues rather than their vices, but I was only vaguely aware that Hydra also exported naval heroes. On my last trip to Hydra, at the pier waiting for the hydrofoil, I caught sight of a plaque to a Hydriot hero in Argentina’s war of independence. Who knew? The boat was coming, and the plaque only registered for a moment, as I took a last look out on Hydra’s magnificent harbor, architecturally pretty much the same scene as it was in 1821, when the Greek War of Independence began, or in 1810, when a young Hydriot named Nicholas Kolmaniatis left the place in a hurry.
