Don't worry about your boyfriend, he will be quite well after a few days of accomodation. You just be sure to write him long letters, it will make him feel not so lonely.

For many years the Turkish army is the organisation Turks trust the most. We don't trust almost any organisation as much as we trust the army. The army is a honest, warm, nice place. Our military officers are getting an equal education to the universities and the quality is very high.
The Turkish army is not harsh at all. It is well known to make real men out of young boys. In some small towns old people will tell you that boys can marry only after they have finished military duty.

Lululy and Tatli,

Here are the there fundamental rules for those who will serve in the Turkish army. Write them down, for your beloved ones to memorize.

1. Never leave your post without permission,
2. Mind your own bussiness.
3. Never look too dilligent.

No Turkish male is a real man, unless he has served in the army!
