Corps of the Turkish Land Forces
Military unit
The 4th Corps is a field corps of the Turkish Land Forces . Its headquarters is in Ankara .
It was established in the Ankara area in 1966.[1] In 1974, it appears to have been part of the Second Army . Nigel Thomas's NATO Armies 1949-87 , published in 1987, attributed the 4th, 8th, and 9th Corps to the Third Army .[2]
In accordance with NATO's new strategy in the early 1990s, Turkey agreed to commit forces to NATO's ACE Rapid Reaction Corps . "Therefore, the decision was made to create a new division. Thus, the old 1st Infantry Division which had been abolished many years ago was reactivated and renamed as 1 TU Mech Inf Div and attached to 4 TU Corps on 30 November 1993."[3]
