Every summer, journalists bug 87-year-old Jaroslav Ungr, former head of the socialist collective farm that once existed in the Czech village of Zajecov. When Soviet tanks rolled into what was then Czechoslovakia 39 years ago to put an end to the Prague Spring, the now white-haired man in a pink sweater and grey sweatpants was among those who welcomed the Red Army with open arms. But these days the journalists are asking not only about the Russians, but also about the Americans...
