lol my mom doesnt want me to go, i was also wondering if we get breaks and if we get weekends off

[Sotos]

You will have days off, but usually not a whole weekend. If every soldier went home during the weekend then the country would be undefended at that time You will get days off, but how often will depend on where exactly you will serve. In some places you will get 2 or even 3 days off every week, in some other places you might have one. When I served we could stay in for a whole month without going home, but now things are better. By the way, "day off" means you leave at noon and you come back the next day early morning. Very few people actually enjoy serving in the army. It is a duty not something you do for fun. Most soldiers count days backwards and can't wait for the day they will be released. Keep in this mind

i think i might like it becuase most people serve 2 years ill only be doing 6months, plus it will give me a chance to experice cyprus for the first time which will also make it better i think

you have to go and sign up, they dont come searching for you so you could just not go, 21 you dont need adeia to leave cyprus either now. so you can avoid it and not go easily.

I totaly dissagree, i know of many people who were forced to go army, they dont go looking for you. they wait for you to leeve the country and when your at the airport the run your name through the COmputer and if they see u havent done your time in the army they dont let you leeve and ur off to the army.

yes but when you reach 21 you dont need permission to leave cyprus they cant stop you.

are u 100% sure, do u have any proof?

proof? go ask the people in Nicosia who give the paper to leave (adeia e3odou), ask the police ask any one, the rule is you dont need permission to leave once you reach 21 i cant prove it but you can ask and they will tell you the same

palio its not 21 but 25.

I was 22 and they were giving me trouble at the airport for forgetting my paper.

Just remind her that if conflict breaks out and you’re not prepared militarily, you risk getting raped and tortured by Turks.

OMG....... something peculiar just happened, .... my new warp speed internet must have got me here quicker than the post i was replying to......

shazam!!!!!! its because through cypru's warp speed internet you must have accessed a parallel universe where bill is typing 20 seconds ahead of bill in this universe...ive heard of this happenning before, can you hear your voice before you say anything ....thats another clue
