Carved out of the forest on the southwestern edge of Berlin lies an outpost of the Cold War that¡¯s becoming more relevant by the day.
Officially, the Military History Museum located at the former British airfield of Berlin-Gatow documents the role of air warfare, from the first days of flying through to Germany¡¯s reunification.
