All this going on and I find out tonight my kid is getting sent to the same place I was sent in '70's.

Whats Incirlick like now? I heard they have it on lock down and the dependents have been pulled.

Can't help Op. Last time I was there was about 25 years ago. I staged there for movement forward prior to the short lived festivities in DS1 kicking off.

Yeah I was there a few years before you. It was pretty bad then, the province was under Marshall Law and then the country was after the military staged a coup. Adana was nothing but trouble and we were "advised" not to leave the base 1/2 the time, tho we still did. Damn tho we had fun anyways.

I'd heard they poured millions into the place and made it like a normal air base, even put in a golf course. It was a real dump when I was there. Anyway it was kind of eerie finding out last night they were sending my kid to the same place his old man had been, doing what I did. I had 18, he'll have 15 mos.

In '78 they threw a friend of mine off a 4th floor balcony in Adana for marrying a Muslim girl. I'd bet its gotten nothing but worse since.
