Photographer's caption reads: "Quanzell McPherson gazes at one of Greece's Evzones, elite members of the Greek Presidential Guard who were in Detroit to help celebrate Greek Independence Day. Evzones, famed for their bravery and defiance of invaders, danced on Monroe Street in Greektown as part of the day's festivities. March 25th marks the 166th anniversary of the Greek revolution, which freed Greece from domination of the Ottoman Empire."
