Having been stationed in Berlin,
I know what I'm talking about.
:02:08
Let's go back to last June.
:02:10
Considering it was a divided city,
life in Berlin was more or less normal.
:02:15
It wasn't too much trouble to pass from
one side of the Iron Curtain to the other.
:02:21
Some East German police were rude and
suspicious, others suspicious and rude.
:02:26
The Eastern Sector, under communist
domination, was still in rubble,
:02:30
but the people went about
their daily business - parading.
:03:24
These constant provocations
failed to provoke the West Berliners.
:03:28
They were too busy rebuilding.
:03:31
The Western Sector,
under allied protection,
:03:33
was peaceful, prosperous and enjoyed
all the blessings of democracy.
:03:42
Just by coincidence, this happens
to be the company I work for.
