| The first piccie is of the Soviet War Memorial near the Brandenburg Gate on Strass 17 Juni. It is of one of the first T-34's to enter Berlin. Typical, you can see loads of Soviet Equipment but we were disappointed to discover that there is not much in the way of German stuff even in the museums! The second pic is Gotthard trying to hold back the Red Horde!!!! Yes I am outed. A big mad Paddy!!!!
