A hot-air balloon lies draped over shrubbery in the Bavarian town of Naila near the East German border on Sept. 16, 1979. Two couples and their four children used the balloon to escape to West Germany.

SOLIDARITY Unable to stop the construction of the wall, President John F. Kennedy made a symbolic visit to the Brandenburg Gate in June, 1963, where, in a speech intended to demonstrate his unity with the citizens of West Berlin, he declared, ICH BIN EIN BERLINER, I am a Berliner.

East German border guards carry away Peter Fechter, after they shot him down as he tried to flee to the west. Fechter laid for 50 minutes in no-man's land before he was taken to a hospital. He died shortly after arriving. Fechter became the first of at least 125 people who would die while trying to escape East Germany by climbing over the Wall.
