Lucius Clay (US General) supervised a de-Nazification program of Germany immediately after World War II, directed the Berlin airlift, instituted currency reform, and helped establish constitutional law and self-government. He struggled victoriously against Soviets and Washington's Western allies who wanted to keep Germany divided and weak. Out of retirement, Clay returned to Berlin in 1961 during the construction of the Berlin Wall. On Clay's orders, U.S. tanks were brought to "Checkpoint Charlie" after East German guards refused to let a U.S. official back into West Berlin. The appearance of U.S. tanks brought arrival of Soviet tanks to the east of the checkpoint and the area was feared as a flashpoint for World War III. It was determined the tanks were Soviet tanks and not East German tanks and Clay was confident the Soviets would not take hostile action. Clay died in 1978. His West Point grave has a memorial from the citizens of Berlin that says, "Wir danken dem Bewahrer unserer Freiheit" -- "We thank the defender of our freedom."
