Fantastic photos Paul! I would love to do one of these tours with you, to visit this city with like minded people sharing an interest for what took place there all those years ago, and to go with someone who knows the city and it's sites, I'd love to! Maybe one day, the plan is to visit Berlin at some stage, it is very high on my list of places to see.
Great pics.thank you
Awesome Pics Paul..the pock marked buildings show the history of the time..........Is the Reichstag building open to the public?

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

The only remaining Flak Turm situated in the old French sector, the French were unable to completely destroy it due to it's location next to the Railway tracks !!
Views from the Turm looking North to one of the Bombers main attacks routes to Berlin Mitte and then towards the centre , the balloon is around the area of the Anhalter Bahnhof !

Great thread. Never ceases to amaze me how Berlin and Germany in general bounced back from utter devastation.
Great pictures thanks for sharing
