You can fiddle with whether a document is legit or not and then turn around and say because a series of photographs are examined at a CIA facility, actually manned by both CIA and Pentagon people, that makes it a CIA job. Curtis Lemay made sure the Strategic Air Command and secondarily the U.S. Air Force knew the pilot that got those photos was a SAC pilot. it was a CIA flight part of a long standing CIA operation Still need to explain all those F8Us that got shot at in a non-battlefield. This is a separate issue Francis Gary Powers was not in a battlefield Around noon that day (October 27) a Lockheed U-2 piloted by Rudolph Anderson was shot down by an SA-2 Guideline SAM emplacement, increasing the stress in negotiations between the USSR and the U.S. It was later learned that the decision to fire was made locally by a Soviet commander on his own authority, although exactly who this was is a matter of some debate. Why should a "battlefield" shoot increase stress? the reason is that its not a battlefield Later that day, at about 3:41 p.m., several F8U Crusader aircraft on low-level recce missions were fired upon, and one was hit by a 37 mm shell but managed to return to base. Still not a "battlefield" Vince |
