Ol' Gorby is towing the line now in Russia, blaming the USA for starting a new cold war and for causing Russia to invade Ukraine.
I ETS from the U.S. Army the year before.
I was in DE 80-84 running comms for a field nuke unit protecting the west from those evil commies.
Yea, it's been a long time.
Wow, 25 years? Sure doesn't seem that long ago.....

When we heard that the wall fell, me and a couple of friends drove to berlin from Paris. It was a great event but it was also a pretty wild party! Eastern german girls felt... liberated.
Scuttlebutt around base was that the wall was going to come down that night. I thought they were pulling my leg- but we knew hours before the news services did. After I got off my day shift, I went out to Checkpoint Charlie and then the Brandenburg Gate and watched the world's biggest party unwind. I've never been hugged or kissed by so many strangers!
