Photos From Father Micheas Langston

Father Langston provided these photos from Berlin and the add-on tour that followed.  Father Langston is the Chaplain for BUSMVA and is quite an expert on the former East Berlin.

The first photo shows Peter Fechter's grave. Fechter was shot while attempting to escape across the wall and left to die.  The next few photos are from the museum displays of the  Lutheran Versöhnungskirche (Reconciliation Church) which was demolished by the East Germans.  The other photos are from the Russian War Museum, Walter Ulbricht's grave and some photos from the add-on tour.
