in 1945 when the red army arrives in berlin, berlin is a city of women and children because the men are prisoners, there were very few men in the city. i uncovered a lot of i have to say, harrowing memoirs, letters and diaries of the women in berlin who suffered enormously when they came in, these soldiers literally drunk on victory and they were drunk and came through and raped and they abused many of the women in berlin. it was very important, a difficult story to tell and a difficult story to read. it is very important to tell that because part of the story and by trauma limit in berlin would live with for decades afterward. it also explains partly why the women of berlin were so desperate for the americans and british and later french as well, so desperate for them to arrive to bring some sort of sense of order to the city because it's not only a city in ruins, it's a city without any government at all, without electricity or gas or water, without anything. so the americans, when general 20 howley bring in 25 thousand troops each, they are coming to a place of total anarchy and its

and then the berlin wall cuts it off. so that brings me to the speech itself the spring of 1987 i am a speechwriter in the reagan white house i'm told the president will speak in front of the berlin wall, he will have an audience between ten and 40000 people and he will speak for about half an hour and given the setting the subject will be foreign-policy. that is all the guidance i got. i flew to west berlin with the security people who work out security with the westerman's members of the oppressed office and check the camera angles and i went to gather materials. first stop is where the president would speak and it's very difficult to convey how momentous the place felt. just a few feet away is the water had damaging the second world war i climbed and observation platform to look over the wall into east berlin behind the westerman modern city and on the other side of the wall color listeners, more soldiers and pedestrians, on one side life, the other side twilight. next i went to the office of the american drinking dipl
