Murat Going to national service.

[Groupermadness]

I wanted to start this thread to wish Murat Best wishes, as he Leaves on Sunday to go to Ankara to start his National service(Military) and thought that maybe other members would like to do the same.

Best wishes Murat, see you in March when you return to the Island.

Same advice we gave to Nemo... Don't be the smartest or the dumbest!

Good luck and keep your head full of blue dreams...

 

[Donna]

Best of luck Murat - see you for some spearing lessons next year!

You do NOT want to go there...... The "Entrance Physical" is somewhat designed to weed out those guys that tend to the .... :girlie side of life....

In the late 1970's, when lining up, the Company Commanders would be yelling at the recruits "Nuts To Butts!" to get them into a very compact line but that quickly became "Toe To Heel" in the early 80's.... for obvious reasons :mute

Ugh!

Hey Murat, you DO know what NAVY stands for, right?

Never
Again
Volunteer
Yourself

Actually, no....

You get classified as a :girlie if the guy in front of you yells, jumps, turns around, and then proceeds to punch your lights out..... :ko

Sarah don't worry, i will take care myself. I hope..... rofl

Johnny,

to be honest i don't feel anything about it neither excited not scared. Its just something that everbody had to do here and i will do it too as the rest of the other boys.

Bret, i did not volunteered but it does not make much difference here rofl anyway at least you were in navy, close to sea. Me not :waterwork :waterwork

It will start on this Monday in local city. Its 3 days training after that i will have 10 days off to prepare for main training in Ankara Türkey (i won the exam and will go to Lteunant school). After 3 moths of training there i will come back to Cyprus for the rest of my Military service (9 months) as Lt.

If i won''t have a access to internet you will know what i am doing

But i will do my best to keep you guys informed.

Thanks again for the wishes.

Congratulations! I am not sure if the ranking structure is similar to what I know BUT being in a command position beats the tar out of being cannon food regardless!
