I remember the incident when they were shot down. Never read much after that.
I was honered to know (slightly) gary powers after he was traded and came to lockheed to test our U2s.
Powers really had his father to thank for pressing for his release.

Damned if you do. Damned if you dnn't.

Actually, I don't remember anybody complaining while they were being held hostage. So, in essence, they only seem to be complaining now that these folks have been released.

They likely didn't even know there were hostages in Colombia

Columbia is in NYC right? Or near Seattle? I think Sidnee's/Berkeley's/Riley's pediatrician went to med school there.... (ATTENTION: THIS POST IS SARCASTIC)
