SAN DIEGO - Tunjay Celik has stopped carrying photos of his 13-year-old son. He doesn't walk through toy stores anymore.
He last saw his son nearly three years ago in Turkey when Celik left for work as a U.S. military translator in Iraq. Now, Celik lives 7,000 miles away in California. He has worked as a cab driver, but is currently unemployed."
