My boyfriend is currently serving his military service... He hates it. They are treated like sh** and in terrible conditions . I also have lots of friends with boyfriends serving at the moment and more to go in later this year, they are all very proud to be Turkish but none of them want to go in.......they are dreading the time arriving. 3 months is the general time for training, my boyfriend was 6 weeks in training, but some of my friends boyfriends did even less and were then sent off to the Iraq borders how can the Turkish military justify this?? One friend of ours finished his military service 2 years ago, and still has to see a councillor as his nighterrors are driving him insane! Seeing his friend shot dead beside him.....and all at just 20 years old!! Only 2 weeks ago a young soldier was found dead from the cold in the morning in his bed......they are freezing, and run into the ground with not enough sleep and being beaten and abused by the 'big soldiers'...!
I hope they do cut the time from 15 months ........I cant wait to get my boyfriend back and just hope the experience hasnt messed with his head too much!
Thanks for your views I enjoyed reading them.

Nobody is treated like sh*t in the Turkish Army, unless he is real sh*t.
You tell him that; he will understand.

Yes of course she should tell him it's all in his imagination. I'm sure you know much more about what's going on in the army than those who are actually there, experiencing it (we need a sarcastic smiley here)

Didn't we have this talk before by the way...

And then they either have to deal with it or hope for the best on the other side, because it ain't getting any better (except when they become great grand fathers there they can boss the rookies around). Oh the joy!

That is not true....can you believe a decent man in trenches would be sending out crying messages like this to his girlfriend?

Her boyfriend is probably peeling army potatoes somewhere, but wants to show himself as the Spiderman !

Alpha why don't you join the army again? I'm sure those wussies could learn a lot about being a man from you..

I think that's true during training yes. Isn't there a theory about breaking men down before you can build them back up or something?
