Founded after the end of the Greek Civil War in 1949 as part of the state’s effort to assign responsibility for the “political rehabilitation” of civilian exiles, the OAM was under the defence ministry but with oversight from three other ministries – education, public order and interior. It operated the “special civilians’ schools” at Makronissos, which were noted for the exceptionally brutal methods used to extract repentance declarations.
