17.06.1953 Tanks in Leipzig!

56 years ago the Russians sent tanks into many East German cities to suppress the rioting against the raised "norms" ie demanded productivity. Happily things calmed down, unhappily the political scene didn't change. The phot shows tank tracks made of brass set in the ground directly in front of the old market house.
