To become a good soldier, I have studied half a dozen martial arts since childhood. I received parachute, glider piloting, underwater diving, and shooting training. I also worked as a sniper in the army for part of my life. You can read the funny and painful things that happened to me on my profile and on Quora.(https://www.quora.com/profile/VOLKAN-DURAKCAY ) Then I realized that being at peace and writing and creating something with your dream power could be the best thing in the world. After a quick discharge from the army, I am now on the earthquake search and rescue team. Now I'm writing and trying to move forward. My script became a Quarter Finalist in SCRIPTAPALOOZA SCRIPT CONTEST 2021. Also, you are always in one piece, the most dangerous thing, is drinking so much wine when you are writing and sleeping on the table! Long live the super harmony of peace and the pen! Nice weekend everyone!

Dear Miss Xochi Blymyer, Mr Maurice, Miss Gloire, and Miss Emily J many thanks, my pleasure to be here with you lovely beautiful people. ( Trust me you are beautiful, l saw many of the worst ones! )
For me, another script can be in ice-cold mountains with guerillas. That is not funny! l am new one in stage 32 l hope l am not make mistakes.
l am happy to see that you like my training,. If your family is a soldier in four generations, the training program started for me with Judo at the age of 10. Four times l was so close to being in a body bag I almost succeeded.
All these of course life experiences, l never live stress, because l lived too many things, my house is burning? l don't be in a hurry, no problem until my jeans burn!
Being on the rescue team is my new love. After much training, l am so cold-blooded. It is useful in the rescue team. Maybe you have heard or not, a few months ago there was a very big earthquake. 450,000 people died in Turkey. Another nice day in the lovely Middle East!
Also, lots thief and bandits were attacked to the area for gold and money under the buildings. Soldiers and police shot many of them.
At this kaos time, Rescue teams were trying to save people from under the buildings.
Imagine you are trying to save earthquake victims alive. The soldiers caught a thief next to you and are beating him. Police were busy shooting another one.
Maurice my friend, I think you are right, this would make a good scenario, but I don't know where to start.
But l can not do anything to fall off the table l am living over and over again. The good part of it is my head is so hard just like bulletproof.

You're welcome, Volkan (Walkie ) Durakcay. My condolences to the families of the people who died in the very big earthquake. I'd definitely watch a movie about the earthquake search and rescue team. Or a show.
