Georgios didn't want to bow down to dragon, statue, sign of the army in which he was a high officer, he pushed it and it fell down in front of the emperor who was searching to punish every christian in his army. - He showed courage, didn't want to bow to the forces of darkness but to the true Light-..God. With that gesture, he simbolically killed the beast. The beast is darkness, lie etc..He showed the way simbolically what every man should do in his life. Serve justice, truth, and not false world. It takes courage to confront temporary glory. This is the true glory. For all times.- He is not just a tribune (in some small army of "village Rome", he is a St. Georgios..

Hahaha ! Ridiculous, the father a Turkish Officer in the Roman Army in the end of the 3rd Century AD?
The common denomination Turk is first mentioned in Chinese 6th century AD chronicles as T'u-küe and was the name of a clan within a larger nomadic tribal confederation, which bore the proper name "Turk" and whose origin and language can not be clearly established. Turks arrived from Central Asia and settled in the Anatolian basin in around the 11th century AD through the conquest of Seljuk Turks.
I would say, in the 3rd Century AD the Turks didn't even know that they existed.
Besides it is well known that Saint George came from Cappadocia, a Region of Asia Minor
in today's Turkey.
