In summer of 1969 I flew into Tempelhof on a Pan Am 727. (My dad had been assigned to work in West Berlin). Speaking of dad, he got to fly in and out of the Berlin during the Blockade (he was a courier during the Blockade while it was happening). From his stories it was usually C-47's and C-54's that he flew in. Dad will be 94 in May. The camera with which most of the pictures of my siblings and me were taken was a either a Leica or a Zeiss (it was black, and it folded open, acdordian lens) that Dad traded a few cartons of cigarettes and some chocolate for when he was a GI. Mom didn't start using an instamatic until the mid 1980's.
Gail Halverson's son (Terry) and I were in the same junior high school in West Berlin. (He was a year ahead of me).
Colonel Halverson was, as a JO, somewhat famous as The Candy Bomber during the Blockade.
