The U.S. stores nukes in Turkey as part of the NATO deterrence strategy. During the coup the Turkish authorities were quick to siege the military base supposedly hosting the nukes. From CNN:

  > Turkish authorities encircled the base, cut off the power
  > supply and temporary closed the airspace around Incirlik 
  > as they fought off the coup launched on Friday.
