His vision as a soldier

Mustafa Kemal (Ataturk) was a great officer and commander. He was a pure soldier. Briefly, he had acted with the military discipline in his entire life. Every soldier has been trained for war and fighting as he was trained. Besides his military personality, he was aware of one thing: to be right in the war. He had never thought that war was his whole life. He had some limits.

Firstly, he considered the war as a defensive way. It means that he never thought to invade other countries’ land. He agreed to make war if the country or the benefits of the country were under danger. He has a statement, If a war isn’t aimed to defend your land, it will be a murder. The country and the values of a country are in front of everything according to his vision. Otherwise, it will be the waste of the vital sources, and the people will die for nothing. He always stated that the military should be kept far away from the policy.
