Syntagmatarchis (Συνταγματάρχης, abbreviated Σχης), sometimes anglicized as Syntagmatarch, is used in modern Greek to denote the rank of Colonel. It is translated as `leader of a regiment (syntagma)`, and dates back to the Classical Age armies. However, the name is misleading in that the Hellenic Army retains very few regiments.....
