Well, this is what I was told by a Turk.

Most Turkish men go into the military at about 20 years old. The time of service is one year for a officer and six months for a soldier. Also there is some type of pay system which let's certain people reduce their time of service. The pay system; however, seems a bit complicated and most definitely not available to the average Turk.

Hope this was helpful to you.

Tati, I don't think the military service is that short. My bf said exactly what Sonny said, 15 months at the age of 20 or if they have a degree then its 6 months as a solider or 12 months as an officer. Thats just what my guy says, we've been talking about it alot lately because he has yet to serve his military duty because he has been studying here in the US and he is trying to decide if he wants to continue with his studies or return to Turkey for military.

You have 11 months to stock up! Where do the other half go? Which half is he in? See the good side, and be proud of him.
