BERLIN, GERMANY: Britain's Queen Elizabeth II (2nd R) and her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh (L), are welcomed by German President Horst Koehler (R) and his wife Eva at the Charlottenburg castle in Berlin 02 November 2004. The Queen is on a three-day visit to Germany -- her first state visit since 1992, that will include a benefit concert in Berlin for Dresden's Frauenkirche church, which was destroyed in Allied bombings in 1945 and is being restored. This has sparked media speculation that the queen will apologize for the mass bombings of the eastern city, which killed 35,000 people three months before the end of the war.
