Tuslog Det 193,Turkey

TUSLOG Detachment 193 was a United States Air Force unit stationed at Çiğli Air Base near Izmir, Turkey, during the Cold War. Established in the 1950s as part of the larger TUSLOG (The United States Logistics Group) operation, its primary mission was to support NATO operations and facilitate U.S. military presence in Turkey. The detachment provided logistics, communications, and administrative support to various USAF activities in the region. TUSLOG Det 193 remained active until the late 1970s, when changing strategic requirements led to the reorganization or closure of many American facilities in Turkey.
