Kevin Reichley, a 71-year-old American veteran who served in the Turkish-American Joint Defense Facilities in Sinop 50 years ago, recently visited the city with his son after over five decades. He expressed joy at returning, praised the city’s beauty, and noted the enduring friendliness of its residents despite significant changes. During his visit, he met old friends, paid respects at graves, and explored tourist sites. On his last day, he connected with current American soldiers in Sinop through a live broadcast, providing a unique perspective on the city’s transformation over the past 50 years.
