I see the pics are upside down. Blame it on the Gluehwein! I am sorry!

and I thought it was the roller coaster Andy....
See you on the Dark Side......
I just thought everyone, even the buildings were celebrating by standing on their heads.
They are the right way up for us in Australia ��
Looks like you picked up a nice plate there. Well done.
To go along with your Berlin photos.
Have a great time there Andy. I love Berlin!
Bob, is that the one at the Museum of Army Transport at Fort Eustace?
Run for your life - there are stupid people everywhere!
Looks like a good place to pre celebrate Christmas Andy.
Looks a bit cold though!
Now playing Aeroplanes with my pilots in the hotel lobby.

Going to the Weihnachtsmarkten is great fun. I've been to a few, Munchen, Hamburg and Nurnberg. Woulod love to get to see a few more.
B-17 plate? I would not think of finding one of those in Berlin. I would assume B-17s are not appreciated there!
Enjoy your Christmas Andy!
Great looking group Andy. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Oh no...
1st Dywizja Pancerna has reached Berlin.
Many B-17 crews can confirm this.Originally Posted by Teaticket

Time heal most wounds. We owe the USA a lot after WW 2, especially (West-)Berlin.
Voilŕ le soleil d'Austerlitz!
happy holidays to you and yours as well andy!!!!!
Envious of your wonderful time, Andy! Reminds of the mid-70s when I was stationed there...except there was a Wall then...
Looks like you all are having a blast!
All the best,
Matt
Steve you are correct. I never spent anytime in Europe. All my overseas time was in Asia. I have a friend who was stationed in Berlin and he fondly remembers taking that train to the west.
I spent many nights on that train, too - go to sleep at night in West Berlin, wake up at the crack of dawn in Frankfurt - and vice versa - a great way to travel!
All the best,
Matt
