  • Action Line #80203 - Base Shuttle

    Complaint: I have been at Incirlik for over a year. I occasionally use the shuttle bus on base as well does my wife since we only have one car. All I ever hear from the commercials on TV is that you can't flag down the bus now and that you need to be at the stop before the bus arrives. This is good

  • Action Line 80202 - Vehicle Passes

    Question: Why do we have to get passes for our vehicles and the Turkish soldiers do not? I understand that this is their base but it seems like they are trying more and more to make us uncomfortable. Is it that they don't want us here? I was stationed here 10 years ago and we never had the tension

  • Action Line 80107 - Fitness Center

    Complaint: I too would like to voice a concern regarding unauthorized usage of our facilities by personnel who have no affiliation to the TAF/USAF/AAFES. A main issue that concerns me is use of the fitness center. I understand that TAF and USAF personnel can use the facility, but I have repeatedly

  • Action Line 80106 - Commissary Usage

    Complaint: In response to the action line item that was submitted concerning purchasing at the Commissary; today I witnessed two Turkish national employees of the commissary purchasing items that appeared to be for personal use.

  • Action Line 80105 - Smoking Areas

    Complaint: There is a sign posted outside the commissary exit that says, "No Smoking," yet every time I leave the commissary it is like walking into a wall of cigarette smoke. I noticed that there are people smoking behind the brick wall (which is made of bricks with holes in them) between the

  • Action Line 80104 - Music at the Bowling Alley

    Complaint: I was in the bowling alley a couple of weeks ago and the music that was playing, to me, wasn't appropriate. Limp Bizkit was playing in its unedited version for all to hear; plenty of lyrics with the "f" word in them. At the time, no children were in the bowling alley (it was 2200) but the

  • Action Line 80103 - Base Water

    Question: I don't feel as though I need to go into extreme detail about how hard the water is here because as you are reading this I am sure that your body is itchy and hands are cracked and no amount of lotion will suffice. I understand that we are in Turkey and things are done differently but we

  • Action Line 80201 - Wear of gortex with ABUs

    Question: I usually keep my comments to myself regarding uniform wear here at the 'Lik.' I didn't say anything when I heard the security forces were being harassed about how they cuff their sleeves while the rest of the base has a hard enough time keeping their shirts on while at work. However, this

  • Action Line 80102 - Phone Bills

    Complaint: I recently received my residential phone bill in an e-mail on Jan. 8. I was shocked to see such an expensive amount that was charged to my phone. I am used to paying $26.58 and some odd cents for basic phone service and a 10 dollar charge for world wide access plus toll charges that for

  • Action Line(s) - 71104 - Mayanet

    Question: I have been here for almost a year-and-a-half, and for most of this time have had Mayanet ADSL service. The last six months have been an absolute nightmare when it comes to keeping my internet up and running. I keep having intermittent problems with my internet service during the week and
