Harry S. Truman

Ground Access

Wednesday May 11, 1949
Berlin, Germany

The airlift worked; ground access was again granted on May 11, 1949. Nevertheless, the airlift continued for several months after that. The Berlin Airlift was one of Truman's great foreign policy successes; it significantly aided his election campaign in 1948.
