Arriving In West Germany

On a wet, snowy night, a West German border guard directs East German refugees, one of whom pushes a stack of suitcases on a baby stroller, as they cross the border between Czechoslovaka and West Germany following the opening of the border between East and West Germany, Schirnding, Germany, December 1, 1989. Germany had been divided since 1949 and the creation of the Deutsche Demokratische Republik (or German Democratic Republic, better known as East Germany), though it wasn't until 1952 that the border was fully fortified.
