(will give brainliest) write a two-paragraph journal entry from the perspective of someone your age who is living in west berlin during the berlin airlift.

Ican't write your essay for you, but i can give you some ideas.the allies of world war ii divided germany into four zones of control after the war -- each zone occupied by one of the allied nations -- britain, france, the usa, and the ussr.  the same thing was done for the city of berlin, which was in the soviet-controlled zone (east germany).  east berlin was governed under soviet control, and west berlin was governed by the western allies -- britain, france and the usa.  the communist ussr was at odds with their former world war ii allies (which were democratic and capitalist).  in june, 1948, the soviets sought to drive the other powers out of west berlin by blockading all land and waterway routes to the city.  but the usa and its partners (britain and france) would not desert the people of west berlin, and for over a year they used airplanes to drop supplies into the non-soviet part of the city.  this "berlin airlift" effort eventually accounted for over 2 million tons of cargo being delivered to west berlin by air, and the soviets eventually gave up the blockade.  west berlin remained independent of soviet control.if you were living in the city at the time, i reckon you'd cheer for the supplies that were being delivered to the city by air, because you had no other means of support.
