Miltiadis

Many members of the Greek track and field delegation had left earlier for France to complete the final stage of their preparation for the Olympic Games.

This was the reason they missed the opening ceremony, but today at noon, they also made their appearance at the Olympic Village.

"Mr Ambassador, please accept these photographs of my father Miltiadis Manaki, which come from my private collection. My father thought of himself as a Greek, and for this reason I offer these photographs for publication in the album dedicated to him."
