Storm Battalion Commander Cpt. Kisiklili Cemil is one of the Circassian bodyguards of Enver Pasha and a member of Teskilat-i Mahsusa. People know him as Yakup Cemil. He is the one who killed Nazim Pasha during the Babiali Raid.
Soldiers of his Storm Battalion were all former criminals but they did a good job. Because Yakup Cemil was tolerating no mistake.
Best Regards
Fatih

Dear Mehmet Fatih, the word "criminals" for the members of storm troop is not a good definition. They were not criminals. They were all honourable, brave, good Turkish sons who were ready to die and kill for the benefit of great Turkish Nation.
On the other hand thank you for information about Kisiklili Cemil Bey.

I have no doubt about their bravery or fighting will. But those men were were picked one by one from prisons by Cpt. Cemil Bey himself.
