A very painful and dark chapter in germans history, which even causes controversial debates till this day.
It is important, to never forget about the value of freedom.
Great Post Tony!

I remember the day the wall fell down.
I was 14 years old and grew up in East Germany. The end of the Wall was unimaginable for me as teenager. I can remember that as kid I learned in school that the WALL was a fact consisting for ever and the chances of a peaceful reunification of Germany were very low to zero. I feared the 3rd World War.
So sad that after the happy decade from 1990 till 2001 where everything seemed possible we are now facing again worldwide confrontations.

wow, thank you for sharing! very interesting, I wasn't aware that they were teaching in school that the wall was going to be there forever, and a united germany wouldn't be possible. That's crazy. thankfully we ended that area.
and you are right, now the world is facing different problems again!

This post was quite a trip down memory lane for me!
I was stationed in West Germany during the 1980's while the cold war was still quite hot. The Berlin Brigade had the assigned duty of patrolling the wall; I remember riding around on the back of an M151A1 hanging onto an M60 with the ominous, and ever present thought in my mind that the NVA was on the other side of that wall watching, and patrolling exactly like we were. The era still hold an aura surrealism for me because I never thought the Cold War would end.

thank you for sharing, that's so crazy! like @twinner mentioned below, it's so strange to think nowadays that people believed the wall would be there forever, the cold war would never end and germany would never unite. things have changed so much (for the better!!)

I was 14 years old, as the wall opened. My mother picked me up in the early evening reout of bed. We then went to the bordercrossing to Warschauerstraße and we stood with long before the wall and waiting ready the file was opened. I had it a little red pocket radio and heard all current messages to. ....many people were standing neatly in a row ...... it was extremely quiet .... the smell of tension was in the air.

they just built the wall overnight, and never gave the people a chance to notice what's going on! :O

yes, it was a state secret and nobody had any idea that this was going to happen. They played dirty tricks but at least the wall fell in the end!

weird to think that they would just put a huge wall like that through the middle of a country. all just to keep the people trapped inside, and the economy happy. humans are crazy sometimes.

absolutely. drastic measures like this are not always the best solution. everyone in the DDR was unhappy so in the end the wall fell anyway!
