It wasn't made news to the world until early 1946 (that I
recall) but was then a minor sensation as the first in a
long line of USSR defectors to the USA and Canada.

Hmmm. Sounds like secret prisons and such.

Nah. "Camp X" was merely secluded enough and guarded well
enough to ensure privacy. Defectors are kept as comfortable
as possible, unlike lawbreakers.


I wonder if those hams
were any good at "debriefing" techniques?

Dey knew de code which must be de brief. :-)
