Air Bridge Berlin - Tales from Freedom's Outpost / Occupied Berlin series (Paperback)

During the Soviet Blockade of Berlin (1948-1949), Operation Vittles (Berlin Airlift) brought in over 2,326,406 tons of supplies, nearly two-thirds of which was coal, on 278,228 flights to city of Berlin. The Berlin Airlift was the greatest single mass airborne relief operation the world has ever known. The supply planes flew in food, fuel, and medicine and others brought something extra. Chocolate and candy was parachuted in to the children of Berlin. While all the aircraft flew in to Tempelhof Airport, R.A.F. Gatow, and Tegel Airport heavy with supplies, very few cargo planes ever flew to western Germany loaded. The few that did fly back heavy were carrying empty boxes and trash. Even fewer C-47 cargo planes were carrying precious cargo, very important precious cargo. When the operation to bring the precious cargo out of Berlin is discovered and the contents are switched no one is the wiser until a young Berliner recognizes the cargo is not what it seems to be. The young Berliner then turns to a US Army Infantryman for help. Together, they must do what they can to stop the cargo from leaving Berlin. They soon enter into the race of their lives, what they do not know is that it is also race for the lives of every man, woman, and child in the city of Berlin and the Free World.
