Most of these images are included in a self-published photobook which can be found on http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/487967. The gallery contains a collection of my personal photographs from the time I was stationed in Berlin (December 1988-May 1992). November 9, 2009 marks the 20th Anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall. I served in Berlin as an Army Military Inteligence Officer.
