Incirlik is a Turkish base with American and other nations using it. It is not an “American” airbase:

When I was stationed there 77-78 it went by Incirlik CDI, which meant Common Defense Installation. Base owned by Turkey, with Turkish cops manning the gates. No American flag was flown on base and the words “US Air Force” was painted over on all the American vehicles. The Turks were pissed at us for a US arms embargo against them for stealing American equipment when they invaded Cyprus.
