Karamursel Turkey Vintage Photo of candy store.

I taught for the Department of Defense from 1967 until 1970.  The first year I was at an American Base Karamursel 2 hours from Istanbul.  Here is a photograph of some of my class in front of a candy store in a nearby town also called Karamursel.
Below is a photograph of the American Section of the town of Yalova.  Here you caught the ferry to visit Istanbul.  The second picture shows the American base.  Many years ago 1967 - 1968.
I am always looking for Turkish postcards.

That is so interesting. What had you teaching there........was it missionary work? Did your mother worry about you being so far away in a strange land?
