We sent every available F-111A from our base (see tag line) to Incirlik in 1980 just days prior to the failed Hostage Rescue attempt in Iran.

And we were on immediate deployment status in Germany...already had rations, ammo, etc palletized and ready to go. Quite unusual for mechanized infantry in that day. When they had us update wills and punched out extra dog tags for us we knew they weren't playing around.
Yes, those were exciting days!
