The guest today is Kim Read who appeared on episode #49 when we talked about training at the LRRP school in the 1980s. On this pod we discuss life in Germany during and after the Cold war. What it was like to go on exercise and some of the remarkable conversations we had with German WW2 veterans we met. Kim lives in Germany and tells me about former work mates who served in the East German army including a T55 tank driver, an SS21 commander and another who worked for the infamous Stasi. We also discuss how the War in Ukraine is viewed by the Germans.

No Desert Island Dits this week as Kim has been on the pod before.
