This post brings me back a memory from my time in Germany. When I was stationed in Hanau, I went into one of the Turkish Gyro Sandwich Carry out place nearby German Police Academy. The Turkish owner and I started to speak in English. When he found out that I was Korean-American, he brought back some of his late father's photos from second floor residence. His father served in Korean War in Artillery unit in the Turkish brigade. He was very proud about his father served in Korean War. I thanked him for his late father's service to Korean War. After that night, I always stop at his shop whenever I was in the neighborhood. Not only did I get best Gyro Sandwich outside of Chicago, but I get to hang out with a friend.
