ZUM4922308: Tue 18, 1954 - 24 year old American pilot Fred D. Elkins hitchhiked over 14,000 km around half the world in order to get married to the one he loves. When he was an airlift pilot Fred met secretary Helga on the airfield in Berlin-Tempelhof. They fell in love and decided to get married... but Fred was re-stationed to Austria. His at-time 19 year old Helga followed him to Vienna in 1951. Then right before everything was ready to go again, he was commandeered to the Philippines. He saved all of his vacation days until the beginning of this month, when he hitchhiked on planes en route to Berlin because he didn't have the money for a regular flight. His buddies from the air force helped him though, and so he flew for eight days in different military vehicles over India, Egypt, Italy, and Europe - before finally landing in Berlin. Now they are married. His vacation days, however, are over on March 23, so Helga will have to wait a little longer, now as Mrs. Elkins, for her travel permit to the USA / Bridgeman Images
