Lauren Cooper

We spent a few hours after the Lone Pine service wandering around the area. There were many Turkish guards around and I think we spent nearly an hour with them talking and taking photos, first on our cameras and then all of a sudden they all popped out their cameras!! The men were so friendly towards us and interested in where we were from, what jobs we did etc. I remember the weight of the guns surprised me so much. 25 April 2001
