Five GIs in Trieste Go for Swim,
Create International Incident
An Army private whose mother
lives in Falls Church, Va.. found
himself and four other soldiers in
the center of an international dip
lomatic incident
today.
The incident,
involving the
United States
and Yugoslav
governments, is
the result of the i
five soldiers
taking a swim
across an inter
national bound
ary where they
were picked up
by local police
and taken to
j jail.
The Falls
Pvt. Foster.
Church man. a termer sailor, is Pvt.
Gordon J. Poster, 33, who has a wife,
four sons and a daughter in Balti
1 more His mother, Mrs. Mary J.
Poster, lives at 1013 Madison lane,
Falls Church, with a daughter, Mrs.
James E Doyle and her family. An
other of Pvt. Foster's sisters, Mrs. R.
P. Sandford, lives at 207 South Lee
street, Falls Church.
Not Yet Released.
The State Department told the
story—an 'ole swimmin’ hole’’ yarn
with an international twist." The
five men were arrested in the Yugo
slav area of the free territory of
Trieste June 16 and have not yet
been released. The State Depart
ment said they have been held too
long. It ordered Ambassador Cav
endish Cannon at. Belgrade to de
liver an indignant protest and de
mand freedom for the men.
In addition to all this the story
has a spy angle—propaganda spy,
that is—which would only be pos
| sible at some such place as the
incredible city of Trieste. Trieste
'is the little ship-building city at the
head of the Adriatic which both
Italy and Yugoslavia tried to get'
out of the satellite peace confer
ences a year or more ago.
Unable to make a Solomon's de
cision as to who should get It, the
Big Four powers decided to make
the city and some miles around a
"free territory.” Today it is any
thing but "free,” being occupied by
thousands of Yugoslav troops on
one side and thousands of British
and American troops on the other.
Feelings run high.
Soldiers Used Boat.
On June 15 the five Americans
decided to go swimming. In addi
tion to Pvt. Foster, they were listed
as T/4 George C. Wilson, Southern
Pines. N. C.; T 5 Augustine Santana.
New York City; T/5 Jarvis L. Saul
nier, Manchester, N. H., and Pvt.
Archie M. Van Why, Route 1,
Stroudsburg, Va.
Press Officer Michael J. McDer
mott said the soldiers entered the
Yugoslav zone in a small boat and
added, "Their purpose was merely to
go swimming at a beach at Capo
d'Isrtia.’’
While they were swimming, the
Yugoslavs seized the whole group
and took them off to jail. American
military chiefs immediately began
demanding the return of the men.
The Yugoslavs told the Americans
not to worry, that they would be
sent home "unharmed" in due
course.
Mr. McDermott said the protest
and direct demand for release to
the Yugoslav government at Bel
grade were determined on because
of the "prolonged detention."
Spy Angle Develops.
Meanwhile, the spy angle has)
developed. A few days ago, accord-;
ing to the State Department, a
Communist newspaper in Trieste
published stories that the five men
were espionage agents. This ties in
with Yugoslav propaganda charges
that British and American soldiers

Mr. McDermott stressed in this
connection that the purpose of the
five ‘was merely to go swimming."
Asked why they chose a beach
across the Yugoslav zone boundary.
Mr. McDermott said he didn’t know,
but “perhaps it was a hot day in
Trieste.”
The Communist paper, for a rea
son best know to itself, gave its
report of the incident a festive air
by publishing a picture- of the five
i soldiers in detention. It did not
[show them *looking glumly out of

drinking beer with their guards.
