Germany had a masterful array of heavy bombers- called both Gothas ( from the manufacturer) and the even more technologically advanced R-planes this stood for Riesenflugzeuge- Giant aircraft ( implied airplanes) These were so advanced over allied craft their existence was suppressed in the interwar period and they were kept out of the Hobby Shops- some had six-eight engines- hopped up Modified Mercedes Truck motors- heavy tonnage here!

He was celebrated for his kindness and generosity in dropping candy to children in Berlin after World War II. His legacy continues to inspire many around the world.

Berlin has figured in so many wars, battles and skirmishes as late as the sixties they were blasting away at pillboxes on the Berlin Wall. I can remember as a kid hearing newcasts about this ( UN troops destroyed an East German pillbox- these were semi-fixed gun emplacements- not mines or something to fatally step on. Maybe they used this term as Turrets are associated with Tanks. I am not aware of any purposely-called Berlin bomber. There was no Berlin campaign in World War I, as Germany surrendered in November II ( now Veterans" day- in the dining car in the forest.. by contrast the Civil War ended- in a very appropriate place- a Court House at Appomattox, Va. Make peace in a lunchwagon- or come into court.
