Was there not a East Berlin and Berlin wall?
The Soviets were the boogeyman to the Germans aswel. Taking people in the dead of night, evicting farmers from there land and replacing them with communist sympathizers, stealing, all that nasty stuff.
I remember reading a diary of a German officer who discribed the Soviets during the first few years of the occupation as "rag tag", no standard dress code or discipline which is pretty funny given current events
The Soviets killed people who tried to escape.
