So, imagine someone who doesn't want to join the army because he is a hardcore pacifist. Instead he goes working and helping on a project to educate the poor people in his country who don't get the same chances in life as other people. Won't that teach him something about life as well? And is he a sissy because he is not in the army but helping his country in a different way?
I would appreciate your opinions.

Currently this option isn't available. Because some areas were lacing teachers once they had allowed teachers to do their duty as a teacher in primary schools in Eastern villages. This certainly is becase they care for the schools and teachers.
So far there hasnt been much attention towards the pacifists. I think there might be in the future but I'm not sure.
When the threat by other countries decreases the army makes changes accordingly. A few years ago when I was in the army the standart duty was 18 months instead 15. I think with time when there is a more peacefull environment (you need to consider in how a dangerous place Turkia is located) and when they can employ more professional soldiers, new changes might be introduced.

Quoting erdinc: Yes army service is a very serious issue all Turkish men must do. Losing citizenship takes a long time. I dont how many years they wait but they wait many years. During this long wait if the person comes back he will get arrested and will directly send to military service.
These kind men will be not very welcome in the army. They will have a harder time.
The health issue is too detailed. If you have some surgeries which prevent you to do sports properly you still will join the army but wont do the exercises.
You must have a serious illness. I think homosexuals are not accepted either. |
so if ur a homosexual... how do u prove it?? hehe... and do they lose their turkish citizenship too??
