What's Going on in the Military?

In turkey, a bunch of soldiers went on the bridge to the bosphorus and shut it down. It was then reported that thy were staging a coup. They were then beaten, flogged and draggdto the streets. My understanding is that these guys no idea whatwas going on. Were just told to do it, and because they just blindly follow orders, they would. So that's a real possibility people need to understand when it comes to the military. Its not about just following orders. It's about you're giving normal orders.
