How to unlock the Strange Bedfellows achievement in BioShock Infinite - Definitive Guide
You can help it along by putting a few shots into each men to wound them to make it easier for the turret to kill. If it gets destroyed, you can re-tear it back into existence a few seconds later while you hide on the balcony. Once you let it kill everyone in the area, restart checkpoint and you return immediately where you were outside the door for more boosting.
There are two allies before this one in the game, but the checkpoints are further away, or it will only help kill one enemy. This location only took me a few minutes.
After you acquire Elizabeth's Tear ability, which is obtained automatically as part of the story, you can use it to summon in allies who will automatically attack enemies for you. These include Motorized Patriots (the robot George Washington guys), Mosquitos (flying turrets) and stationary Automatons which either shoot rockets or fire a machine gun. You must get 20 kills using any of these allies. You can weaken the enemies a little with your guns and vigors, but the ally you summoned must get the kill.
As with most of the combat achievements, it's recommended to do this on Easy difficulty. I played on Hard and only managed 10 kills towards this achievement by the end of the game.
I made a video on how to get this achievement.
Basically you want to go to the Return to Hall of Heroes Plaza chapter.
Once done run down to the sky rail at the end and bring in the mosquito to your right.
If it gets destroyed then you can simply open another tear and after a few seconds you can open the mosquito again.
Rinse and repeat!
Let me know if this helps!
I hope to get more videos soon.

Easiest place - last battle with Siren in front of the gate to the Comstock's house.
Get on the balcony above the sniper rifle tear and hide behind the left column.
There is a Mosquito Tear flying above the square. Keep calling it while Siren resurrects enemies:)))
Just watch out for the melee enemies - they sometimes run to your position.
Got it on 1999 difficulty.
Once Elizabeth can open Tears, they can be used to summon allies such as Motorized Patriots, turrets and Mosquitoes. The Tears are highlighted in grey and labelled as “Turret” or “Motorized Patriot”, meaning you should be able to spot them easily. Once the Tear is opened with , your summoned allies will start firing at the nearest enemy. Be careful as they can still be destroyed by enemy fire (although they will respawn eventually), so it may be wiser to reduce nearby enemies’ health first so they die quicker. As long as the final kill was by an ally, this will count towards the trophy.
There are plenty of opportunities to get this long before the end of the game, but if need be this can be farmed by restarting checkpoints or replaying chapters.
