April 30, 1979--Caption: "Surrounded by the media the day after his arrival in New York City, Georgi Vins was still bewildered by this new twist in his life. Later he recalled that, because he had already mentally accepted a fate of dying in prison, it was a shock to realize he had been released, and a double-shock to be set free on the opposite side of the world in the United States."
