THREE-DAY PASS TO BERLIN - 1968
- a pilgrimage by thousands of 3AD soldiers over the decades -

For Berlin Wall photos

  Sp5 Joe Cyr, 503rd Admin Co, is pictured on a brief "R&R" that included West and East Berlin in 1968. It still seems hard to believe that, even in the thick of the Cold War, American GI's were allowed inside East Berlin on bus tours. Cyr reached West Berlin from Frankfurt via a regular-running US Army train through East Germany.
