Cold+War


 * Spy plane shot down- On May 1, 1960 an American spy was shot down by the USSR. The pilot was captured but was later released.. The pilots name was Francis Gary Powers. He was the best at flying the spy. The helped the U.S.A. see more of what the U.S.S.R. was making/ doing. The U2 spy plane was the highest flying plane at the time so everyone was shocked when they heard the plane went down**
