This week almost as teaching materials for American history, the Palm trees of the 50 States of America opened the spectacle. The garrisons of the three allied powers invited the Berlin population to convince themselves of mood, equipment and level of training of the armed forces.
Racecourse atmosphere prevailed on the street of the 17th June. Americans, British, and French made during a parade hour of vollkommenster Allied Harmony forget the Natokrise. Nearly 100,000 Berliners experienced the took of the troops, whose Anwesenheit provides for the delicate balance of power, has to owe its existence to the West Berlin.
A further, also already traditional meeting has to owe their existence to the tough human memory. In Bonn, German expellees to a meeting at the federal level are gathered. In their hands they carried the explosive, which always again sensitive mind Germany's relations with its eastern neighbours.
More than 100,000 participants of the rally listened carefully formulated theses of their political representatives. They seemed to be not entirely free from the dilemma of having to act outside of reality. The commitment of displaced people was: "Our home claim covers entitled the freedom of enslaved Europeans."

The railway post office car, rolling rail since 1841 over Germany, are the property of the Federal Post Office. The post will pay for their transport, 220 million marks annually.
It is a cycle that is repeated night after night - a constant rhythm, meticulously planned and reliable. Early in the morning, the letters on the breakfast table of the Federal citizen flutter, they have passes through the many stations of a transport system which uses the most modern technical means of our time.

Protest from United States an old American civil war song is the theme song of a young singer from the United States: Joan Baez, became famous as a folklore singer and prominent representative of the wave of protests, which currently gives a touch of worldview international hit business. We watched the 25-year old singer during the preparations for a television show in Paris the face of an American, originating in Mexico and Scotland - and the voice of the star, whose expression scale of the protest against the environment to folk songs from many countries.
Also in Germany, the attraction of her expressive voice, the voice of Joan Baez, who sees the sense of not only their success grows gradually. To earn money, but also passionate charge to speak out against nationalism, against war and inhumanity.

To the devices!

Yet away from the German sport dark rumours go around: the German youth between 18-25 was limp and unathletic. We subjected therefore German muscles a thorough exam. It began with the establishment of a bar in downtown Hamburg. Then we passers-by to the Chin's asked device: O - tone we know even that our test is not generally binding on the bars of the UFA Wochenschau we gained the impression that the German youth is not as unathletic as naysayers claim.
