The Greeks are coming.

The Greeks have joined the UN Peace Keeping force in Lebanon. It's only one frigate, but it will be empowered to open fire if attacked. I assume it will have live ammunition on board.

I wonder why the Athens News Agency thinks it necessary to report that the frigate will be "fully-staffed". Does that mean it will have a full compliment of wine waiters?
