	CSIndy: Your Turn (July 31, 2003)
		The president is John F. Kennedy of course, and the moment captured in that film is one of the iconic events of the Cold War.
		When Kennedy delivered his speech on June 26, 1963, the wall built by the East German government to divide the old German capital was just two years old.
		What Kennedy had achieved was to cloak an unsatisfactory compromise in a symbol of defiance and solidarity that was to last for another 26 years until the wall finally came down.

		Kennedy came to the divided city in 1963 to mark the day 15 years before on which the United States began the first flights of the Berlin Airlift or Luftbrücke, a response to the Soviet’s attempt, ultimately unsuccessful, to blockade the western sector.
		In it, Kennedy marked “truth, justice and liberty” as the three pillars of the future of Berlin and strongly affirmed the necessity of reunification of the two Germanys within a united Europe.
		Kennedy actually uttered the phrase twice, once at the beginning and once at the end of the speech, and it is the final statement, coming after an eloquent declaration of American solidarity with the people of Berlin, that still resonates:

	Heichler \| I Remember...How Berlin Mourned John F. Kennedy
		Gradually it began to dawn on us what John F. Kennedy had really meant to these people, and especially to the youth of Germany and the world, how to them he had been a symbol of hope — one leader, at last, in whom they dared to place their confidence and their faith.
		Kennedy won not only the hearts of the Berliners; he managed also to charm the rather cynical, hard-bitten officers who had worked for two months to prepare every detail of his eight-hour triumph in Berlin.
		By dint of my special position as liaison officer I was deeply involved in Kennedy’s stop at the Rathaus and his unforgettable speech on that occasion, plus the state dinner given there in his honor by the city fathers.

	AmericanHeritage.com / “Ich bin ein Berliner”: A Big Mistake?
		“Kennedy, who had said very little after looking over the wall, was putting together a new speech in his head,” writes Richard Reeves, in his book President Kennedy: Profile of Power.
		Once at the platz, the President quickly dispensed with the civic pleasantries, recognizing the mayor, the German chancellor, and U.S. Army Gen. Lucius D. Clay, who had overseen the 1948-49 Berlin airlift.
		And Kennedy’s words at the wall—like Ronald Reagan’s equally impassioned and provocative plea to “tear down this wall” 24 years later—live on far past the Cold War that provoked them.
