The Berlin Airlift always catches my attention, Sam.It showed America at its finest, and a relative of mine, who lived in Berlin as a young boy, has always been appreciative of the effort made.Chocolate bars came to symbolize American goodness and generosity.

I think what makes the Berlin airlift amazing is that only 3 years earlier we were fighting Germany with Russia as our allie and had destroyed most of its' major cities.
