Considering the Clarion Hotel Berlin (Superior) in Berlin?

Checkpoint Charlie by JUNLI
The main gateway for foreigners between the two Berlins during the Cold War, this was the third Allied checkpoint and thus named 'Charlie' with reference to the third letter in the phonetic alphabet (alpha, bravo, charlie, dora ... ). The old watchtower can be seen in my picture left with label 'US Army Checkpoint' above. The famous sign 'You are leaving the American Sector' is the remainders of that spooky chapter in German history. No idea to the guy in the background picture there. He seems to be a Russian general as his Russian army uniform, but no idea who is he and why his picture is there?
