Dear members and friends of the “bridge”,

I want you to join our Stammtisch on Wednesday, 4. March at 19.30 Invite the hotel Köhler. We show that night the film about the US Depot: “Patriots for Peace”. You remember the group of students, who visited usn once the root table and their plan, wanting to make a film about the Americans pouring in as part of their Master evening? The film is well done, the grading student work was outstanding. In the cinema center it has already been shown in sold-out, kürlzlich in Oberhessischen Museum in Giessen, where about 200 People came and people are still turned away at the door had.

Here is a brief description, I get from the website of the department of history teaching, to the study, the young people, have copied:

 

Most in Giessen know the former US Depot. When it was still in operation, knew the least, what was going on behind the walls. By casting a kilometer-long front ran for decades of the Cold War, the few German crossed. Outside the Walls, the resistance of the peace movement and the then newly founded Green was formed in the 1980s: against the US Army, against NATO, opposition to nuclear armament. After the end of the Cold War the Americans left gradually casting. On the occasion of 30. Anniversary of the Berlin Wall, the beginning of the end of the Cold War, accompanied History witnesses and made a film about this blind spot in the city of five master students of journalism.

 

I look forward to you all! Until Wednesday…….
