Cold War Comic
Text z Príbehu
- Hallo, Frank! Are you there? The Soviets put a wall up well we slept.
- So that's what I heard last night.
- Ja, I am here. What is the meaning of this? Why are we trapped?
- On August 13, 1961, The Berlin Wall was put into place.
- Meine Mutter said that something like this would happen. How will we get food?
- One day in July 1948 I met 30 kids at the barbed wire fence at Tempelhof in Berlin. They were excited. They said, “ When the weather gets so bad you can’t land don’t worry about us. We can get by on little food but if we lose our freedom we may never get it back.” The principle of freedom was more important than the pleasure of enough flour. “Just don’t give up on us.” they asked. The Soviets had offered the Berliners food rations but they would not capitulate. For the hour I was at the fence not one child asked for gum or candy. Children I had met during and after the war like them in other countries had always begged insistently for such treasures. These Berlin children were so grateful for flour to be free they wouldn’t lower themselves to be beggars for something more. It was even the more impressive because they hadn’t had gum nor candy for months. When I realized this silent , mature show of gratitude and the strength that it took not to ask, I had to do something. -Gail Halverson
- I have an idea of how to help them.
- That's Uncle Wiggly Wings!
- Yayyyy!
- They would know my plane because I would wiggle the wings as I came over the airport. -Gail Halverson July 18, 1948
- Look at that plane shaking its wings!
- Hurry! Run! Here he comes!
