How do you think the Candy Bomber reflects the story of the Berlin Airlift?​

History

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

I think the Candy Bomber reflects the story of the Berlin Airlift in that it shows the humanitarian side of the military, in this case, American Colonel Gail Halvorsen, who was a command pilot for the US Airforce that participated in the Berlin Airlift, after Soviet leader Joseph Stalin had ordered to close any land entries to West Berlin.

Colonel Halvorsen used to drop candy as a gift to German kids. So people started to call him "Candy Bomber."

The United States, France, and British Airforce sent airplanes full of food and supplies to West Berlin. This helped people survive for almost a year.
