Turkey's President Erdogan's body guards attacked American and Turkish journalists yesterday in Washington D.C. . The story linked represents one journalist's experience with the body guards. The body guards did eventually back down but only after the Turkish embassy intervened and persuaded the bodyguards to back down.

CPT (Join to see) thanks for posting Turkey's President Erdogan's body guards attacked American and Turkish journalists yesterday in Washington D.C. Hopefully all is calm and peace is on the horizon.

The reporters think they are dealing w/ PC Secret Service or civilian security details. The Turks are generally recognized as a hard corps! CPT (Join to see) Just check the mustaches on their military!

Secret Service and whatever Turkey's version I'm sure can be a bit Harsh I'm sure, Not surprised. DSS (Diplomatic Security Service) can be a bit Gruff and Rude too but usually less Physical. I used to get by DSS Agents with ease wearing Washington Naval District Master at Arms Badge #9 but more than once I got some rude comments. LOL!
