Hello all - I was going through some other items today in my bunker and I came across these two xerox copies that I have owned for a number of years. And I was thinking that I wish I owned the original documents from Alexander Schalck-Golodkowski and some of other documents that relate to his history in the MfS and as head of the KoKo organization.

Another person who I wish I had additional documents from whose history is tied to the end of East Germany. Günter Schabowski was a member of the SED and in November 1989 annouced in a broadcast that the rules to travel outside of East Germany had been lifted. And as we all know the rest is part of history...
I hope you enjoy the thread...Somebody, after all, had to make a start. What we wrote and said is also believed by many others. They just don't dare express themselves as we did. Quote - Sophie Scholl - White Rose resistance groupComment
