Abstract

I wanted to go to Southeast. I had heard a lot about the war there. I was curious. But on the first day, I cried. Having people cut your hair and the way the senior soldiers or the officers treat you is terrible. In a sense, I was defeated on the first day. We were given G3 rifles and received training for MG3 and other weapons. It was a very hard training for three months. In the evenings, we received antiterrorist combat training. These lessons made me even more curious.
