[edit] Indiana Jones reference

Should I put in the reference to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, where Alexandretta is the starting point of the map leading to the Valley of the Crescent Moon? Firestorm 21:01, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)

I thought we already had one! Speaking just for myself, I'd say be bold and have at it!

[edit] Yes!

If I understood correctly, the question is if the city, Iskenderun is the same city depicted in Indiana Jones! Yes it is! I am from that city and it was an important passage to the Middle East and Far East, since there were no roads or airplanes to travel at the time. I have some pictures I took of the train station depicted in the movie but I am not sure how to post it. In fact, my grandfather worked at that station there when he was a little boy, during French invasion.
