OK, I'll bite -- I was 25 yrs, and in W. Berlin, when the wall was built. Did you dig out pieces of the wall in person Vic? I did. Pluto will always be a planet to me. Seti Ambassador Not to late to order an Anni Shirt |

Just a sprog here! I remember when the tribe gathered to have some fun in the Boarders. The Romans got really pissed and threw tubs of boiling oil at us from the comfort of a wall built by Hadrian's .... The Romans called us Picts It's good to be back amongst friends and colleagues |

OK, I'll bite -- I was 25 yrs, and in W. Berlin, when the wall was built. No, I've never been outside of North America, My Dad though up until 1946 did, Courtesy of the US Army, He'd been a part of the 368th Medical, which I think is a Medical Records unit, As the letters He mailed to Mom said He'd been recommended for 2 Commendations for His paperwork for both Allied and POW Patients. He worked for a Newspaper chain after 1946 as a Route Manager, which I suspect is how He came to possess this item below. Oh and the Iron Curtain? Consisted of Barbed Wire to some extant from what I remember seeing in pictures years ago. Savoir-Faire is everywhere! The T1 Trust, T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, America's First HST |

This is what I remember of the border with the DDR from West Germany. We liked to stand in the east to have our picture taken. Edit: This is not a pic' of me. |

And to think the DDR is now almost unremembered, the area dividing the two areas of Germany is now a Nature Preserve and corridor I've read, So something good came out of It at least. It's ironic though that DDR survives as part of a memory standard as Double Data Rate, DDR2 and DDR3... Savoir-Faire is everywhere! The T1 Trust, T1 Class 4-4-4-4 #5550, America's First HST |
