On Victory Day, Aug. 30, newly graduated officers (on screen) from the Turkish Army War Academy prepare to pass on the responsibility of carrying the flag to students who have yet to graduate from the academy. Victory Day commemorates Turkey’s victory in the Battle of Dumlupınar, one of the final battles in the 1922 Turkish War of Independence. Officials from the Office of Defense Cooperation-Turkey here attend such events to strengthen the military-to-military relationship between the U.S. and Turkey and support Turkey’s military armed forces.
