Late revelation! At the initial meeting in the hotel lobby, Carl K.Overstreet (Link to Site )( with straw hat) spills an old secret to Sergei Khrushchev: “ I was the pilot who flew the first U-2 mission across your country!” Imre (Emery) L. Toth, the former Secretary of the Revolutionary Committee during the 1956 Revolution, with his wife and Chris Sturdevant seemed amusingly impressed, listening to the revelation of the once super secret of the Cold War. |
