The Great Escape From The DDR

The Great Escape From The DDR

The great escape from the DDR

In 1961 there was the construction of the Berlin Wall. It separated East Germany (DDR) from West Germany (BDR). The reason for its construction was that many people from East Germany, who suffered under the totalitarian communist system, escaped and resettled in the democratic state of West Germany. East Germany threatened to ‘bleed out’ and to prevent further escapes the Wall was built.
But even after its construction several attempts to escape took place.
One of the most spectacular ones was the one from two DDR citizens in November 1986. They were called Dirk Deckert and Karsten Kluender. They both were unhappy to live under the totalitarian communist government. They lived near to the North Sea and came to the conclusion that the best possible attempt to escape was the one through the sea to Denmark. Although there were some patrols on the coast and some patrol ships in the sea, it was less risky than other variants. As it was late autumn, they thought nobody would really reckon with an escape through the cold waters of the North Sea. They thought they could easily reach the coast in the early morning hours without being spotted. Then
