The singer Veronika Fischer (*1951) commuted between the two parts of Germany on a permanent visa until she decided to leave for the West in 1981. Reiner Schöne (*1942), singer, actor and musical star, fled to West Berlin in 1968 and later moved to the USA, where he began an international film career.

The band leader was imprisoned and finally bought out by the Federal Republic of Germany in 1984. Written by RBB See less
