Having a pee in a Portacabin whilst waiting to get through checkpoint charlie on route to Magdeburg. A border guard was aiming his machine gun at our heels.

I was in that toilet too, everyone had to go whether they needed a pee or not. Caused a lot of confusion as my passport showed me as a 16y.o. with long straight hair, the 18y.o. with a perm in the seat made the E.German lady very suspicious! It got even more surreal when she looked at the guy behind me, he had a Canadian military passport showing a real buzzcut, he also had a perm! I seem to remember that the East German border guards were unarmed, it was the Americans that were armed to the teeth.
