Georgakis Kapsokalyvas

Kapsokalyvas was a native of Zatouna in the eparchy of Karytaina. An excellent captain,^{[according to whom?]} he led soldiers under the command of Theodoros Kolokotronis and Dimitris Plapoutas. Saying that "rifles weren't made for shooting the sky but for killing the enemies,"^{[citation needed]} Kapsokalyvas trained his men to fight quietly and carefully in order not to waste ammunition, and he made the soldiers compete to see who would kill the most Turks.
