jun 24, 1948 - Berlin Blockade
Description:
A blockade set up by the Soviet Union, which restricted access to West Berlin by land. America was forced to send supplies to West Berlin by plane. This was a much more expensive way to supply West Berlin with goods, but America was persistent and wasn't going to let their portion of Berlin fall to communism.https://www.historyonthenet.com/the-cold-war-timeline-2/
