A Short Story by Alfred L. Freiburger
I was a C54 Pilot assigned to the 14th Troop Carrier
Squadron
of the 61st Troop Carrier Group based at Rhein-Main Air Force
Base in Frankfurt, Germany.
I was stationed there from March to November 1949. During that
time I was lucky enough to be chosen to work with 20th Century
Fox in making a movie about the Berlin Airlift. The Movie was
Named "THE BIG LIFT" direected by George Seaton . The American
actors were Montgomery Cliff and Paul Douglas. It was very interesting
to say the least, to have a speaking part in the movie. It was alot
more fun and cleaner than flying
