[QUOTE="Paddy54, post: 5146196, member: 19250"]A very close friend and work colleague saw and remembers at 3/4 y/o lived in Germany, Berlin to be exact....was on his fathers shoulders when Kenedy made his speach at the gate. When Kenedy said in German..."I to am a Berliner." His dad who I never had the honor to meet......was a GI WW ll part of the OSS..later to become the CIA. Between him and his brother I have been told many stories of life with a very active agent. His dad spoke both German,and Russian .....his dads job get East German,and Russian scientists out of East Berlin. He made many trips under the wall to do so! He tell me daddy would put my cowboy suit on....and we go out to the wall...I would pose..and daddy take photos.....not of his cute kid but gun and guard placements. He shared I ask daddy have my pictures come back yet? lol....another story same type having him carry balloons and tell him ok let them go..... hopefully landing in the right hands with coded messages. We have lived in some great times....experenced so much ....we were the sons and daughters of the greatest generation ever...and love to share the stories that need be told.[/QUOTE]
