The Curious . . . Of all the impressions the Turkish people made on visiting Marines, the most significant was that they are ex- tremely curious Qalthough this trait was equally as pronounced the other way around tool. Probably more than any- thing, this was due to the fact that 6th Fleet ships rarely, if ever, call in one of the three small ports visited. As a result, all one had to do was signify he wanted to take a picture, or engage in conversation with one of the locals, and he was immediately mobbed by the Turks. Another baffling experience in the small towns, was to walk the length and breadth of main street without seeing so much as atrace of awoman. Because of religious taboos, Qnot because of the Marinesj, all dutiful husbands and fathers kept their womenfolk under lock and key.
