Good evening, Mooch...The Berlin Airlift is a piece of history that needs to be remembered and retold.
Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving and good weather.
We are in single digits for a few days, but we have a little snow on the ground. A bit more snow would be nice to protect the pipes as the 6+” we had is mostly gone.
Hello, Kathy,
This is a great article. THANKS. I knew about the event, of course, but, I am astonished by the numbers involved! A logistical Herculean task. It was a mind boggling accomplishment requiring literally an army of participants, and co-ordination. Not just the “Can Do!”, mindset of the American and British Air Forces, but, their “Will Do!”, dauntless determination to accomplish the mission...by the very same Air Forces that had bombed Germany back to the stone age! As our beloved Jarheads say, “YOUR BEST FRIENDS, OR YOUR WORST ENEMIES!”
THANKS AGAIN!
AND WE’RE BOTH SNUG AS BUGS IN OUR RESPECTIVE WARM HOUSES!!! WE’RE DOIN’ ALRIGHT!!!
