The Candy Bomber

     Today I am going to share an interesting story that I came across in my GC history during the last semester. There was a topic called the Berlin blockade in which Germany was divided into four zones by the US,, Britain, France, and Russia. At this time, West Berlin was blocked by Russia. For a year, the people of West Berlin were supplied with emergency supplies by airlines. It was not that easy for the US government to do this, but they did it, and at last, the Berlin Blockade ended as a failure for Russia. There was something called the Candy Bomber that attracted me. So I went inside the link and started reading about it. It was during this tough time that a pilot named Gail Halveraon dropped the candy to the children. He even showed a sign to them by wiggling the wings of the airplane so that they could easily identify the plane. Just a simple act marked his name strongly on the page of history . It's not about what we do; it's all about the situation and how we behave in it.
