He accomplished different military trainings including commando, ranger, paratrooper and anti-guerrilla by getting excellent grades. He had a very strong and sporty body. He had very sharp eyes. He would always try to predict the future and to think about the future issues. In addition to these military features, I could see the firmness and greatness from the strong body of martyr Abshanasan. When at one night I observed him as he was bowing down, I noticed that he was crying in tears and he was worshipping God so honestly. I could not accept that by this behavior he could be so firm in the battlefields. Someday he had held the Kalashnikov gun and he would climb the mountains in a way that the young people could not do that; in fact no one could believe that martyr Abshanasan had that kind of compassionate and spiritual heart that he would cry in tears when he was prostrating in front of God.”?
