rdfs:comment	Ο Γεώργιος Ψυχουντάκης (3 Νοεμβρίου 1920 - 29 Ιανουαρίου 2006) ήταν Έλληνας μαχητής της αντίστασης στην Κρήτη κατά τη διάρκεια του Δευτέρου Παγκοσμίου Πολέμου. Ήταν βοσκός, ήρωας πολέμου και συγγραφέας. Υπηρέτησε ως αγγελιοφόρος πίσω από τις γερμανικές γραμμές για την Αντίσταση στην Κρήτη και αργότερα, κατά την περίοδο 1941 - 1945, για τη SOE. Κατά τα μεταπολεμικά χρόνια φυλακίστηκε κατά λάθος ως λιποτάκτης. Εκεί έγραψε τα απομνημονεύματά του, τα οποία γνώρισαν παγκόσμια επιτυχία. Αργότερα μετέφρασε από το πρωτότυπο την Ιλιάδα και την Οδύσσεια στη κρητική διάλεκτο. (el) Georgios Psychoundakis (griechisch Γεώργιος Ψυχουντάκης; * 3. November 1920 in auf Kreta; † 29.
