Memories Of A Turkish Officer

There are people you are proud to know. For me, Beybaba comes fi rst among these. In fact, it is one of God’s greatest gifts to me. There are two reasons for this. First of all, both of my grandfathers died before I was born, and he acted as a grandfather to me. Secondly, think of a person who is almost a century old. He lived during the reign of Sultan Vahdettin, met Atatürk’s eyes, came within two meters of him, and attended his funeral. When he was born, the Republic of Turkey did not exist. It’s living history. 6-7 September Events, II. World War II, Menemen Incident, coups. He witnessed the recent history of this country. More importantly, since he was an offi cer, he traveled extensively throughout the country. Based on the life of Muhittin Ergüneş, you will have the chance to learn what has happened since the 1920s, how people lived, and the history of daily life.
