This was the Barefoot Battalion's pledge before Christ's image, and the hand-written saying: He that hath HIM, hath life.
"I pledge on the Saviour's image to help my loyal countrymen. Every act from now on will be for my people. I shall think first of the good of my country. I will never betray the cause of liberty. The enemies of Greece will always be my enemies. I will work with all others who fight against the Nazis. I will help the sick and the helpless. I will love my fellows more than myself. To this, I pledge myself. Guide us, oh Lord, to do right, and to bring victory and a just peace to our country. Amen."
