| 55th Party Convention of the CPSUZöD | 
|  | The 
        situation gets out of control. The unanimously agreed on plan to burn 
        the U.S. flag in a symbolic act is destined to fail. The material is fire-proof. 
        One of the Soviet-sympathisers is dragged across the field right after 
        the Americans have dug out the border post and locked it up in a white 
        Volkswagen (a ‘Nazi Machina’ according to Chrusov). The red 
        flag disappears. At this point memory of the incident dissolves.
