If you ever get to go to the National Air & Space Museum in Washington, They have a whole room devoted to Gary Powers and the U2. The exhibit is amazing, and you get to see basicly everything that Powers had with him, and what he was wearing when he got shot down. They also have some of the wreckage on display. It's amazing when you see how much stuff the Soviets returned to us when they released him, and it really makes me wonder how much other stuff they kept. It's on permanant display there and it is easy to miss with all of the other things that they have there.
