Dev-Sol (Revolutionary Left Organization) militants had killed John Milton Gandy on March 22, 1991, during their raid on the Yesilyurt office of the Vinnel Brown Rooty (VBR) company, which was carrying out transfer and customs operations of U.S. soldiers. This raid was launched just when late President Turgut Ozal was preparing to meet then-U.S. President (Father) Bush in Camp David.
Another attack on the company took place in Incirlik on December 2, 1993, when one of the vans was bomb-raided in the base. The Mesopotamia Army (Mezor) took on the responsibility of this attack.
