Die Maurer Berliner in Oberkirch

[@jeffgrier8488]

Thanks for the video Shane, i remember the tearing down of the wall quite well.

[@BuffaloNavalPark]

Yes, it's a "flash memory" for people! They remember where they were when it happened! Glad you enjoyed!

A great video, I remember it being raised and torn down.

[@BuffaloNavalPark]

Ah...thank you Kirk! I remember it coming down, but apologies, not being built!

Nice video! I found a few sections of the wall in Manhattan - pretty surreal touching it

[@BuffaloNavalPark]

It is very surreal, Gary. I noticed them checking into the hotel, but it was dark, so I didn't know what they were from across the street. Waking up the next day and seeing them was an exciting find!

Hi, Dad 👋🤗. Great informative video about The Wall..still remember hearing Ronald Reagan's famous quote from the Brandenburg Gate on 6/12/1987.." Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!" Would be awesome if ur museum could get a piece of it 👌On 12/8/87 Reagan & Gorbachev signed the INF treaty. ..Enjoy the rest of ur stay..will look forward to the U-boat clip👍..tc and ty for sharing 😊

Thanks jolie2861! Yes, that is a defining moment of the 1980s for sure. I was a dumb teenager when all of this happened, so I couldn't comprehend it in full! Ha! Thanks - I'll say hello for you! Appreciate your support as always!

And the lesson is... Building walls at borders to segregate people is never a long term sustainable solution. Having watched the wall come down on TV when I was young and then having visited Berlin and walked much of the route of it was a weird feeling. Also surprising just how obvious it still remained in some areas that were previously east/west Berlin.

[@BuffaloNavalPark]

Agreed for sure, wurlycomer. Appreciate it. That is the lesson for those that want to learn it!
