He was born in the village of Elafotopos, Zagori in the Ioannina Prefecture, in 1922. He entered the Hellenic Army Academy, but the outbreak of the Greco-Italian War on 28 October 1940 interrupted his studies; along with his classmates, he participated in the Battle of Crete, where he was seriously wounded. In 1942 he was named a second lieutenant. During the Greek Civil War, he served as a platoon, company and battery commander, being promoted to lieutenant (1946) and captain (1948). He was again wounded during the Battle of Naousa in April 1949.[1] Gratzios was an artillery officer, but after the civil war, he was trained in special operations in Greece and Germany and held several command and staff positions in the Greek Special Forces: commander of the Paratroopers School, of the 5th Raider Squadron, of the Special Forces in Cyprus (in 1965-67). He also commanded the 12th Infantry Division, the ASDEN and III Army Corps, and First Army, being successively promoted to major (1952), lieutenant colonel (1958), colonel (1967), brigadier (1971), major general (1972) and lieutenant general (1974).[1] On 14 September 1976 he assumed the position of Chief of the Army Command, which a year later was reconstituted again as the Hellenic Army General Staff, a post he held until 11 January 1980, when he was appointed as Chief of the Hellenic National Defence General Staff and promoted to full general. He finally retired on 19 January 1982.[1] He died in 1993, and is survived by a wife and two children.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite book | title = Συνοπτική Ιστορία του Γενικού Επιτελείου Στρατού 1901–2001 |trans-title=A Concise History of the Hellenic Army General Staff 1901–2001 | year = 2001 | publisher = Army History Directorate | location = Athens | chapter=Στρατηγός ΓΚΡΑΤΖΙΟΣ ΑΓΑΜΕΜΝΩΝ του ΚΩΝΣΤΑΝΤΙΝΟΥ, ΑΜ 23048. | language = Greek | page=186 }} {{s-start}}{{s-mil}}{{s-bef|before=Lt General Ioannis Davos}}{{s-ttl|title=Chief of the Hellenic Army General Staff|years=14 September 1976 – 11 January 1980}}{{s-aft|after=Lt General Efthymios Karagiannis}}{{s-bef|before=General Ioannis Davos}}{{s-ttl|title=Chief of the Hellenic National Defence General Staff|years=11 January 1980 – 19 January 1982}}{{s-aft|after= Admiral Theodoros Degiannis}}{{end}}{{Chiefs of the Hellenic National Defence General Staff}}{{Chiefs of the Hellenic Army General Staff}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Gratzios, Agamemnon}} 9 : 1922 births|1993 deaths|People from Zagori|Hellenic Army generals|Chiefs of the Hellenic Army General Staff|Recipients of the Cross of Valour (Greece)|Greek military personnel of World War II|Chiefs of the Hellenic National Defence General Staff|Greek military personnel of the Greek Civil War |
