Aytaç Yalman (born 29 July 1940, Istanbul) is a former Turkish general. He was the Commander of the Turkish Army (2002 - 2004) and previously General Commander of the Gendarmerie of Turkey (2000 - 2002). He retired in 2004 due to the army's age limit.[1]
According to General Levent Ersöz, it was Yalman who informed Chief of the General Staff Hilmi Özkök of key military figures' membership of Ergenekon.[2] In 2012, Yalman talked about his role in preventing the "Sledgehammer" coup plan in 2003.[3]
In 2008 Yalman wrote the libretto for "Şehitler Oratoryosu" (Oratorio for the Martyred).[4]
