Berlin Humor Eases Tense Occupied City
West Berliners rely on sharp wit in music halls and cabarets to ease 12 years of Cold War strain. Jokes target Adenauer Khrushchev and local landmarks such as The Last Taxpayer statue and the Hungry Claw Air Lift Memorial. Citizens endure restrictions, cemeteries in the Soviet zone, and border patrols while enjoying private humor in a claustrophobic city. 87,962 dogs escort weekend outings and forest trips remain near the Soviet frontier.
