What an interesting story started today.
I was just 6 years old and had no idea I too would become a part of the longest "War" this country ever endured, the Cold War. I entered service during one of the "Hot" periods, Viet Nam.
But, enough about me. I wish to share the story and appropriately, I think the Cold War Museum is the place to tell it.
I say this for the Museum would not exist without Powers' son, Francis Gary Powers, Jr.

Read and enjoy.
