In 1948, following Soviet bans on all water, rail and highway traffic between Berlin and West
Germany, the British and U.S. occupation authorities organized a system of air transport,
known as the Berlin airlift, to supply the Western-occupied sectors of the city. Planes landed
up to every 45 seconds with relief supplies for the 2 million occupants of those sectors. The
Soviets lifted their blockade in May 1949.

In 1965 the United States sent troops to Vietnam to support the South Vietnamese
government during the Vietnam War. From 1965 until the end of 1972, American
B-52s flew regular bombing raids over North Vietnam. The United States had
begun bombing Laos as early as 1964, targeting areas used by North Vietnamese
and National Liberation Front (NLF) fighters. B-52s were also used extensively
from 1969 until 1973 to bomb Cambodia, in an attempt to destroy the
headquarters of the North Vietnamese and the NLF.

U.S. Leaders Negotiate with Gorbachev
United States president Ronald Reagan, center, and vice president
George Bush, left, met with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in New
York City in 1988. Reagan and Gorbachev had agreed to significant
arms reductions. But Reagan’s support for a “Star Wars” nuclear
defense system for the United States was a sore point in negotiations
with Gorbachev.
