Mathias Priebe wrote that he was friends with Johannes Henker. While Henker was tortured in a Stasi prison, Priebe, at the age of 17, went to the fair with his Simson S51 and was an agitator for a FDJ group, like Angela Merkel. Later, he served as a temporary soldier in an officer rank in the NVA. In 1986, the Stasi offered him the chance to fulfill his dream and go to London as a radio correspondent. The offer was tempting; however, he declined it. After that, the Stasi did not ask him again. Priebe wrote that he was grateful to fight today alongside Henker for freedom and against the rising socialism, and also that Henker did not disdain him. He wished he could tell a different story about himself and was glad not to have experienced Henker's ordeals himself. Both came from the same area of Thuringia and wondered if they had danced with the same Katrin at the dam, Priebe wrote. #Priebshow #Freiheit #Geschichte #Sozialismus (translated)
