Many thanks to Charlie for finding a link to The “Tear Down This Wall” Speech delivered by President Ronald Reagan at the Brandenburg Gate 20 years ago today. I was still in high school back in 1987, and I didn’t believe that, inside of 3 years, the Berlin Wall would be gone, at least without World War III taking place.
Sorry about not knowing that the Victims of Communism Memorial will be dedicated today. I hadn’t opened up my feed reader yet to find out Mary Katharine Ham will be there with her camera.
