Greek term or phrase: με την οποία θα αποκήρυσσαν τα φρονήματα τους, το ΕΑΜ -ΕΛΑΣ, το ΚΚΕ και τις «παρ

Από το Καλοκαίρι του 1946 οι οπλίτες καλούνταν να απαντήσουν στο ερώτημα, αν ήταν Έλληνες ή όχι. Και όταν ανυποψίαστοι απαντούσαν «ναι», τότε τους ζητούσαν να υπογράψουν δήλωση με την οποία θα αποκήρυσσαν τα φρονήματα τους, το ΕΑΜ -ΕΛΑΣ, το ΚΚΕ και τις «παραφυάδες του».
