Rademaekers, who has been working on Iron Curtain affairs since 1955 and was in Hungary during the 1956 revolt, dipped into East Berlin twelve times last week-crossing the border at dawn, dusk and midnight-walking, driving, and once taking a ghostly ride through East Berlin's heavily guarded U-bahn (subway) stations. He also scouted the length of the East-West Berlin border from Teltow Canal in the south to Tegeler Forst in the north, scrambling over rubble and through potato patches, often attracting the nervous attention of the armed border guards. At week's end, Washington...
...finds plenty to eat -berry bushes and beehives can't run away. And while the cub is getting honey, the pup is getting stung. At night, when the pup settles down for some shut-eye on a nice soft patch of grass, the bear climbs the nearest tree. Dawn finds the dog's muzzle sleeping blissfully on the grass, while his rump, caught in the leash, sleeps fitfully about 18 inches off the ground...
...skylight opens. A young man's head pops out. "Hurry, darling, hurry!'' a woman gasps. "My husband is coming!" Jauntily the young man leaps to the roof, shoots his cuffs, leaps to the next roof, thumbs his nose at the raging cuckold, dances off into the dawn.

Rickards told the increasingly nervous gunmen that Havana's José Marti Airport would not accommodate the huge jetliner, offered instead to substitute a smaller DC-7 already en route to El Paso for the flight. By this time, the El Paso drama had become an affair of state; if, as was automatically assumed, the hijackers were indeed Castro henchmen, drastic U.S. steps might have been required. In Washington, President Kennedy was kept...
...first, the job seemed impossible, and officers gloomily reckoned on saving no more than 45,000 men. German bombers had ruined Dun kirk's seven modern dock basins. Because the beaches were shallow, small craft were needed, and the navy, in a brilliant recruiting operation, found them. By dawn of May 30, the first wave of an astounding cockleshell armada was heading across the Channel. There was never a navy like it; the beachboat Dumpling had been built in Napoleon's day; the Fleetwood fishing trawler Jacinta, to the horror of the troops that sailed home...
