FYI, the US ceased being an "Occupier" in the early 1950's, long
before you got there.

FYI, you're wrong. I was awarded the Army Occupation Medal. Berlin
was still an occupied city long after I served there.

Quite...but Berlin was not "Germany" at the time.

Neither you nor I said it was. I simply disagreed when you said occupation
ended in the 1950s and I stated that occupation continued long after I left
Berlin. The West German Government continued to fund sustaining allied
troops in Berlin even after occupation of West Germany ceased.

All four powers jointly coordinated air, rail, and autobahn routes from
West Germany to West Berlin. In addition, each took turns guarding Spandau
Prison (Rudolph Hess was the only prisoner when I was there).

That's nice, but that was not the context of the topic (Germany at-large and
Europe in general).

How quickly you forget your own posts when you said:

Which I simply pointed out was wrong. Gee, were you talking about Germany,
Berlin, or Japan (that was also occupied after WWII)? I gotta admit you
spin pretty nicely.

Maybe Vatican city, Liechtenstein or Andorra?
