I thought it was just his normal guy vibe without the shooting glasses. Pretty sure the hand in the pocket is common and I haven’t heard anything about a hilarious back story.
First I read about it from a comment was that he was trying to prove his Ex-Wife wrong that he can make something of himself. But it didn’t mention is that he joined the Gendarmerie of Turkey, which is a police type force in rural areas and other places in the country.
I don’t want to lower his achievements but he’s just a cop who obviously did well in his shooting practice and turned that into a silver medal. He isn’t a hitman like the memes are saying.
This man showed up to compete in the Olympics after his son was assaulted by a wild pack of turkish trans furry democrats. His Turkish sons last words were"Baba, şimdi dinlenmem gerek. Bu trans demokrat kürklerin bugün kazandı ama sen benim ölümümü intikamını almak için Olimpiyatlarda kazanacaksın, baba. Bana ya özgürlük ver ya da ölüm." -New York Post
It is not really “higher” than police and it is not regular military. The gendarmerie in Turkey is responsible for policing outside cities, they are part of the military, but they are subordinate to the interior ministry during peace times (regular military answers to the defence ministry).

Pretty sure that ex wife thing is just a meme. He’s got competition results dating back more than 20 years from a look at his wikipedia page

Gendarmerie is part of the military, higher than police. And he was a sergeant. He’s part of both the national team and the national army team.

Compared to what it takes to become a policeman in the US, it’s definitely a higher level of training. Hard to find a direct US equivalent.
Don’t know about the police. I was comparing inside turkey, where there is the Police for urban areas and the Jandarma (Gendarmerie) for rural areas.
