Do you know,I could have sworn that crashed plane was a mig.I do remember the engines going to Gatow,and remember the airmen being recovered.There was no memory of any
bullet wounds,or talk of it on the raft,or back at barracks.
I recall hearing that civilians in the area said there was a bang and the plane came down apparently out of control. |

Alan Elsey wanted to know who remembered the Russian plane coming down in the river.I was on the raft that was fishing the bits out.It was a twin seat mig 29,and we were at it the best part of a week as I recall.The Russians were buzzing the Kongressehalle in protest at the West German parliament meeting there.  |

Just wandered in to this.In Berlin from 1963 to 1966.Saw the entry from Roger Shantze,I remember him.I didn't realize I had such affection for the place,it's amazing how much one can recall,even though it was a largely alchoholic haze.  |

I played for the Berlin Bears 68-70. 1st ever GI Super Bowl between the Army Champs,us,and the Air Force Champs! I am looking for some of my old teammates from that time! Brad Baker,Geller,Jerry Bayer,Coach Robinson,Coach Hendrix,Stan Walker etc. Memories of the Duty Trains we took from Base to Base to play! If anyone knows someone during that time let me know please. Looking for an american family from there too. I think they were the "Neebs"?
thanks
