Welcome To The City Of Izmir, Turkey.

Where is Izmir Turkey?

The city of Izmir Turkey is located in the western portion of the country.  Even though Izmir is a seaport, it is actually on a saltwater bay about 50 miles from the Aegean Sea.  Here is a map showing where Izmir is:

My assignment here was not actually to a traditional "base".  This is because, at that time, our duty locations were scattered in, and around, the vicinity of Izmir.  Here is a map showing the immediate vicinity of Izmir:

Historical Note!

A number of changes have taken place in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) over the last several years.  Changes have taken place at NATO, the intermediate headquarters at Allied Forces Southern Europe (AFSOUTH). and our headquarters in Izmir.  When I was stationed in Izmir, the name of our headquarters was called Allied Land Forces Southeastern Europe (LANDSOUTHEAST).  Within the last couple of years, the name of this command has changed.  It is now known as the Joint Command SOUTHEAST (JCSOUTHEAST).  Please stop in to the following links below and read the fact sheets available on them to see the major changes that have taken place over the past several years.
