Nine American airmen freed by Russians at border
Nine U S airmen held for 11 days on charges of violating Soviet air space were freed by Russians at the Iranian border near Astara. They were brought to Tehran for rest before depart to Wiesbaden, Germany. The men appeared tired yet cheerful, and were not questioned beyond name checks. The release leaves nine U S Army airmen still in East German hands after a June 7 seizure when their helicopter strayed in a thunderstorm.
