Hello -

My husband had attended the Turkish army for 5 months for a mandatory male military obligation. We will answer YES to the following:

15) a. Have you ever: served in, been a member of, assisted in, or participated in any military unit...

and 18) Have you ever received any type of military, paramilitary, or weapons training.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Should we be answering YES to 16? Does this include military?

16) Have you ever been a member of, assisted in, or participated in any group, unit or organization of any kind in which you or other persons used any type of weapon against any person or threatened to do so?

Does anyone have a similar experience? Is there anything else you included? We're going to include a translated and notarized copy of his completion paper.

Hello!

Nope, he had weapon's training, however his work was mostly admin. I guess with that logic we'll go ahead and put "no"

Thanks for your assistance! :thumbs:
