Türkiye’ye yapılan askeri yardımları koordine etmek için 1947’de kurulan Türkiye’ye Yardım İçin Müşterek Amerikan Askeri Elçiliği (JAMMAT), Soğuk Savaşın başlarında ABD askeri tarafından üstlenilmiş modernleştirme programıdır. ABD’nin bu girişimle ilgili esas niyeti Soğuk Savaş Dönemi’nin ortaya çıkardığı SSCB’nin müdahaleci devlet politikasını önlemektir. Hazırlanan çalışmada, JAMMAT’ta görevli Elizabeth McNeill-Leicester’ın Ankara’da geçirdiği bir yılını kaleme aldığı “Memories of 1950 in Ankara, Turkey” isimli kitabı merkez alarak değerlendirme yapılacaktır. Kariyerini ABD Dış Servisinde yapan Elizabeth McNeill, işgal altındaki Japonya'daki Ordu Sivil Bölümü'nde (DAC) görev almış, daha sonra Ankara'ya gönderilmiştir. Ankara’nın ardından Merkezi İstihbarat Teşkilatı'nda (CIA) görevlendirilen Mc Neill, İran, Pakistan, Hindistan, Senegal ve Kolombiya’da çalışmıştır. Senegal ve Kolombiya'daki hizmetlerinin arasında Sorbonne Üniversitesi'nde Fransız Medeniyeti okumuştur. 1949’un sonunda Ankara’ya gelen McNeill, 1950'nin sonuna kadar Ankara'da kalmıştır. Bu süre zarfında yazar Türkiye’yi, Ankara’yı ve halkı eleştiren bir tutum sergilemiştir. Her fırsatta, ABD'nin Türkiye'ye birçok açıdan yardım ettiğini ve bu nedenle Türkiye'nin Amerikalılara minnettar olması gerektiğini vurgulayan JAMMAT görevlisi Ankara’da kaldığı süre boyunca gözlemlerini ayrıntılı olarak yazmıştır. 2009’da basılan ve halen Türkçeye çevrilmemiş olan kitap, Amerikalı bir kadının gözünden 1950 Ankara’sını görmemizi sağlamaktadır.
