Tools Telnet connection closes before i execute GET command

I tried the below steps for telnet command from a remote server:

1. telnet myservice.com 443
2. GET / HTTP/1.0
3. Press enter key twice

Please see the output below:
Code:
   bash-3.2$ hostname 
 remoteserver1 
  bash-3.2$ telnet myservice.com 443 
 Trying 191.172.172.133... 
 Connected to myservice.com. 
 Escape character is '^]'. 
 GET / HTTP/1.0 
 HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily 
 Server: Oracle-iPlanet-Web-Server/7.0 
 Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2018 14:04:20 GMT 
 Location: https://myservice.com:443/ 
 Content-length: 0 
  Connection to myservice.com closed by foreign host.

But, when I try the telnet command locally [from the same server where https://myservice.com:443/ service is running] it closes the connection even before I could get the response output of the GET command as shown below:
Code:
   bash-3.2$ hostname 
 localserver1 
  bash-3.2$ telnet myservice.com 443 
 Trying 191.172.172.133... 
 Connected to myservice.com. 
 Escape character is '^]'. 
 GET / HTTP/1.0 
  Connection to myservice.com closed by foreign host.

So, like you can see above the connection gets closed even before the GET command could return any output.

Please share a fix so that I can fire the GET command before the telnet connection closes.

mconnect(1)							   User Commands						       mconnect(1)

NAME
mconnect - connect to SMTP mail server socket SYNOPSIS
mconnect [-p port] [-r] [hostname] DESCRIPTION
The mconnect utility opens a connection to the mail server on a given host, so that it can be tested independently of all other mail soft- ware. If no host is given, the connection is made to the local host. Servers expect to speak the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) on this connection. Exit by typing the quit command. Typing EOF sends an end of file to the server. An interrupt closes the connection immedi- ately and exits. OPTIONS
The following options are supported: -pport Specify the port number instead of the default SMTP port (number 25) as the next argument. -r Raw mode: disable the default line buffering and input handling. This produces an effect similar to telnet(1) to port number 25. OPERANDS
The following operand is supported: hostname The name of a given host. USAGE
The mconnect command is IPv6-enabled. See ip6(7P). FILES
