The Berlin Airlift
To keep West Berlin from falling to Communism.
The Berlin Blockade escalated the Cold War by showing that the Soviet Union did not want Germany to be a independent, unified country. Because West Berliners were cut off from the rest of the capitalist world, they needed food to be flown in by Allied planes. It is also significant because of the "candy bombers" (Germans who were children back then still remember pilots dropping sweets during their supply runs).
It was called the Berlin Blockade (June 1948 to May 1949) and the supply operation was known as the Berlin Airlift (June 1948 to September 1949).
