| Abstract | Francis Gary Powers, an Air Force test pilot, was born on October 17, 1929, in Jenkins, Kentucky. In May of 1960, Powers was shot down while piloting the Lockheed U-2 spy plane over the Ural Mountains in the Soviet Union. On August 19, 1960, Francis Gary Powers was sentenced to ten years "deprivation of liberty" by a three-man Russian military tribunal on charges of spying against the Soviet Union. The United States exchanged convicted Soviet spy Colonel Rudolf Ivanovich Abel for Powers in 1962. |
