Over there but...
As it is called - "more modern" border due to East Berlin border guards had to put in these days their weapons for A few time from the hand of a -. You changed their four-year-old barbed wire fences against new steel panels, whose deeper meaning may be the looking over there to make it difficult.
At Bernauer Straße, there in the meantime, no effort to disguise the limit retouching by aesthetic motives. Long ago cleared buildings directly bordering the sector fall Pickaxe to the victims now, to create free field of view. Once again puts the Bernauer Straße, which was since 1961 to sad world celebrity, to the attention of the public.
Do you remember?
Autumn 61st last talks on the suddenly closed sector border.
The inhabitants of the border homes fled into the West.
Four weeks after the wall was built. A 77 managed to flee to West Berlin.
Tear gas battles. For years, they were now 106-year-old Bernauer Straße everyday.
Then began the evictions of houses on East Berlin page. For many The end of the dream of escape. Among those who still dared A few with the life paid. Five crosses stand today on the 1500 m-long street.
Were the last gaps on the sector boundary. These pictures were taken at the end of the year in 1961: the language of the deaf as a last link between West and East. The Bernauer was a lonely and desolate Street. According to Pankow will soon be No more than an extended episode.
Rank and Bestowments were in danger as the soldiers of the Warsaw Pact through the villages of Thuringia in the great autumn manoeuvres. The "October" thunderstorm on the fields and meadows of the zone towards the West. The maneuver game wrote before the attack of Western aggressors from the room of Northern Hesse and the Communist counterattack. Armoured units of the zone and the CSR, Soviet jets seasons and an Airborne Division from Poland recited the counterattack in the sense of an Eastern forward strategy directly to the zone limit. The maneuver plan ordered the use of moderate nuclear weapons. For Walter Ulbricht, the "October storm" only suffered a single flaw: the Soviets had preferred to appoint a Soviet General instead of the Defense Minister of the zone as head of the maneuvers.

Face of a battleground this teens is one of the young people who are Vietnam's guard on one of the most recent battle fields. PLEI me, berannt for weeks by the Vietcongs and defended by over 1000 Americans and South Vietnamese. These pictures were taken in a battle break. Supply supply from the air.
Farmers, which managed to escape at the base with their families. They organized an own posses of their children. The soldiers in PLEI me know till now no answer to the question why the Vietcong just here send his battalions in the mass death. As the strategic importance of this place is small. Like a few successes include the Vietcongs, that their attack binds the strong forces of the U.S. air force. Meanwhile, 2200 American planes and helicopters in use are in Viet Nam.
After an attack, 350 fallen Viet Cong soldiers were counted in advance. Among them many who were tied to their automatic weapons. Also part of the face of the battlefield of PLEI me.

Sports Sports sports a still young discipline of gymnastics gathered their supporters in Neukirchen. Germany's best trampoline jumper competed in freestyle - and compulsory for master would.
Our bat followed the Freestyle figures of the defending champion Heike Osterwald. The highest number of points and therefore the title is awarded to her as precise as graceful leaps. About one meter above the apex of the figures with which the men crowned her freestyle program, among them is A few who have to defend a name as tower - and competes in the summer season.
Michael Budenberg is among Germany's best and most consistent trampoline gymnasts by Berlin police. He became German Champion 1965 his bounce we relied on our camera to you, dear viewers, the dizzying perspective of trampoline figure on the new way to communicate.
Autumnal weather conditions determined the sequence of the last race of the English season. On wet track, the sidecar riders curtailing their speeds to experience victory and defeat as unharmed. The heroes of this race were the sidecar riders, whose ground-hugging Akrobatik decided about who crossed the finish line first.
In the race of solo machines there were dramatic incidents. Heavy falls were highest demands on the durability of the human body.
As if by a miracle it was the mass collisions no serious injuries, not least thanks to the incredible responsiveness, brought with the stakeholders from the battlefield of the horsepower in safety.

Art frees we devote the two letters with which to achieve still a certain sympathy of the audience is the first note of our international art calendar: O op or optical impressions that are rearranged and abstracts submitted to the digestion of the art consumer = P. The French initiator of this moving decor wants to pass on his ideas of architecture.
Attractive nonsense now influenced Salvatore Dali in London the cosmetic brush up and down. Young girls promise an economically successful eyes by the Royal British pop-eye. Its lines have that symmetry and accuracy, which are so often missing in force. The success of on the road can be guessed that the 'eye of the little sister' has a future.
An action or an event that connects the areas of the world or even married. It's called living pictures, which become a middle ground between painting and theater from waste-related material, since 1959 happening. One of the last "events" that got us from the optics, gathered teenagers in Rotterdam. We fear that nothing was provoked except the right love of good citizens.
