On a tour with my mom in ‘62 we crossed at CheckPoint Charlie for a tour of the eastern side. As a 15 year old it pretty much sealed the deal for me that I didn’t ever want to live subjugated like the folks on the “wrong” side of the wall. Still lots of debris from WWII in piles all over the place.

"One, Two, Three" one of my all-time favorite movies.
