“Will Berlin ever be one city again..?” “Yes.”

[@boreddude3508]

The Privileged Capitalist a perfect response

4:30 Will Berlin ever be one city again..?” “Yes.”

[@Awakeningspirit20]

@@OlekRahmel Technically, yes, though there are some that point out how being apart for so long and developing differently still has West and East Berlin/Germany divided psychosocially. Germany modernized the East quite a bit, but there are still some problems. You can look up "Berlin from space" and see that the different halves of the city use different-colored lights; infrastructure evolved differently. While capitalism transformed the East, it is a learned skill by the older parts of the population and they aren't quite as good at it as the established westerners. This phenomenon is referred to as "The Wall in the Mind"

oldstvital2 he did get shot at before

[@justincase1445]

His dressers should’ve let his coat out a little before the trip to make it a little less obvious. After surviving the assassination attempt, he was strongly urged to wear body armor at every public appearance. On some occasions, he refused due to its weight, bulk and the heat it produced. For maximum protection, soft body armor in the early ‘80s was very thick. I’m sure he was wearing the equivalent of Level III or IV-A which was at least twice as thick as similar protection is today.

Happy (mostly) memories. As a young 24 year old, I lived in Leipzig for a month in August 1988 to study German and crossed the border many times at Freidrichstrasse and Checkpoint Charlie. One visit back to Leipzig in late 1988 was nearly a disaster. I missed my train back to East Berllin and arrived in the city around @ in the morning. I was terrified as the border closed at midnight and I was travelling illegally on a tourist day visa that limits travel to Berlin only. I had visions of being arrested and locked up for life....I arrived at Friedrichstrasse crossing but it was shut and the city deserted. Stupidly I managed to open the big metal gates into the transit area under the bridge despite the warnings and walked into the crossing area to the astonishment of a young border guard who nearly shot me. I shouted 'Auslander' and waved my British passport at him. Thankfully all ended well but it aged me about 10 years...

Great video! I lived in Germany in '82, not far away in Wolfsburg. That's is the Germany I remember - safe, full of respect, excellent morals, terrific architecture (rather than this post-modern garbage you see today with steel, cement and glass). When I travel back to Germany today, it's like being in another world - not in a good way. You might as well be standing in the middle of Afghanistan. Such an unbelievable tragedy that a country can be so thoroughly transformed and decimated in such a short period of time by the lefties, who take no responsibility for all the heinous crimes being perpetrated by these "peaceful" refugees, who couldn't give a rat's behind about assimilating into Germany. Angela Merkel, and all her idiotic voters, have nothing but blood on their hands every time one of these animals perpetrates a violent crime against an innocent German woman (or man). On one hand I LOVE watching Ronald Reagan over there. On the other hand it is real tough to stomach the level of undeniable destruction that the leftist commies have wrought on a once pure Germany. Simply devastating.

There is no single person on planet earth more responsible for the infiltration of mass amounts of muslims than Angela Merkel - even the hardcore lefties admit this. In fact, the lefties even boast about their highly successful white erasure. What planet do you live on? Have you been to Germany 40 years ago and recently, in order to be in position to make a first-hand comparison? Or are you just going on what your commie leftist professors have fed into your gullible head?

[@grazzer1673]

@Eidelmania She is personally responsible for the utter destruction of Germany - there's nobody else on planet earth even close. A hallmark of the conservatives "right wingers" is to protect your country's history, language, demographics, borders, customs, language, etc. Whereas the leftist hate all of these virtues - they prove it every day. Most of all they're ridden with white guilt and cannot wait to racially transform their populace into a 3rd world cesspool. Thanks to radical leftists like Merkel, they're achieve enormous success. Anybody old enough to have seen Germany 40 or 50 years ago and compare it to today's Germany can see this plain as day.

Boy do I remember this. I graduated from High School in 1983 and couldn't wait to join the US Army. I got over to Germany and completed several tours. I did 31 years in the Army & loved every day of it.

[@justincase1445]

FET Engineer Thank you for your service.

[@wesbervig1272]

I also graduated from high school in 1983. It was the happiest day of my life. On a SAD NOTE, Jeffrey Dahmer also joined the army and was stationed in Germany; while he was there he assaulted and raped two fellow servicemen. How DISGRACEFUL IT WAS that the U S Army had such a SCUMBAG serving in it.

Thank you from a fellow soldier who missed out on Germany but got to see Italy at least. Would do it all again.

Also the last days of Helmut Schmidt being chancellor. The best one Germany ever had. Rest in peace.

And von Weizsäcker was Mayor of Berlin at this time. Und von Weizsäcker war da noch "Regierender" von Berlin.

Poor guy in uniform finally got his chance to salute his Commander in Chief. LOL

I wonder whatever happen to this MP.

@@bambang303378 The now former MP is on the US Army MP Facebook pages, I did see a posting of his in the last few months about that visit of President Reagan.

You're comment makes no sense, how is he a poor guy ? That was a U.S. Army MP. Saluting is common military courtesy . HOORAH. 🇺🇸🦅💹

@@tomquimby6432 You obviously did not watch the video. He tried repeatedly to get recognized so we could salute. That is what I meant by poor guy; I felt sorry for him.

[@tomquimby6432]

@@glb360 I did watch the video. I spent 4 years in the U.S. Army and 2 years in Berlin during this time period. Everything went the way it was supposed to go. There should have been someone there from the Presidential team ahead of time to brief this soldier on what to expect. It was all a photo op.

This video was 5 years before he uttered that iconic and powerful phrase to Mr. Gorbachev who is another great man by the way.

I think Kennedy had the warmest reception of any American politician when he visited in 1963
