Berlin blockade. The Soviets blockaded West Berlin to force it to become communist (it was democratic). The Berlin Airlift is when the US airlifted supplies to West Berlin. You know so they don't give in to communism.
How did the Allies get supplies to west Berlin?
Allies had to air lift supplies into West Berlin because the USSR had all roads blockaded. The eastern part of the city was under the control of the USSR, and the western region was under the control of the allies. The USSR hoped that by shutting off all routes, the allies would turn total control of Berlin over to them.
