After 462 days the Soviets abandoned the separation of the three western sectors of Berlin from all access ways. Prior to this the Americans and the Brits had organised the legendary air bridge. From 26 June 1948 until 12 May 1949 they provided almost 2.5 million people with food and other goods solely by air. EPA/WOLFGANG KUMM
