[edit] reliablesources tag

What specifically is the concern here? I don't think the article really requires non-primary sources to verify the presence of Berlin Wall fragments...it's just a factual statement not an interpretation or explanation or scholarly conclusion. So are there doubts about the authenticity of some of these pieces, or their locations, or just a feeling that there ought to be more citations in this article? DMacks 08:32, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Missing entry

I happened to come across this page today, and noticed there is possibly a missing entry. I used to serve at Ft. Knox in Kentucky, and have been to the Patton Museum there twice. When I was there, I distinctly remember seeing a fragment of the Berlin wall. Specifically, on this particular fragment was some graffiti which had the words "tear down this wall" written on it. This was a long time ago though as I haven't been to Ft. Knox since the later days of 2001. I don't know whether or not this piece is authentic, but I did a google search for it, and pictures of it can be found here:

Until somebody finds proof of otherwise, I am going to assume it is authentic (it seemed authentic to me) and therefore add it to this list. AlphaWolf

I discovered a piece of Berliner Mauer in the UN gardens in New York City today. Nice. 204.52.215.107 03:22, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
