"At 8:52 a.m. local time, captured American spy pilot Francis Gary Powers was exchanged for captured
Soviet spy Rudolf Abel in Berlin, at the Glienicke Bridge between Wannsee and Potsdam.
Powers had been shot down over Russia on May 1, 1960 while flying a U-2 spy plane.
Abel had been arrested in New York on June 21, 1957. Frederic L. Pryor, a 28-year-old American
student who had been arrested in East Berlin on August 25, was released as part of the deal as well." [Wikipedia]
