The Corinthian helmet always looks good in military emblems - from the front and the side. A good choice.
One thing that annoyed me about our Armed Forces was that emblems were designed for large-formation units (Divisions, Brigades etc.). There are very few Regiments/Battalions in the Hellenic Army with their own emblems.
Anyway, here's a little quiz for the Greeks out there. To which unit did this belong?

Sacred band

Yes. Sacred Band (aka Ieros Lohos, Sacred Company, Sacred Squadron).
The motto is I Tan I Epi Tas (With This Or On This). The old saying by the Spartan women to their men before battle - "...return with this shield (triumphant) or on it (dead)".

The first one - don't know. Looks cool, though.
The second one is definitely US Special Forces Group.
The others, not so sure about. Number 3 is KSK??? The bottom one looks like French SAS (1er RPIMa), but your signature gives that away. :D
