lol... "The Berlin Air Lift (known in German as die Luftbrücke) took place during the Berlin Blockade (24 June 1948 - 12 May 1949). The Air Lift came about after the Soviet Union blocked off rail and road links to the Allied sectors of Berlin in an attempt to gain control of the whole of the city. The Soviet authorities believed that, given the location of the city, the three western sectors would be abandoned by the western allies. "
