Coast Guard ship on November 23 and was denied it. I believe it is important that these questions be answered fully and candidly so that a disgraceful incident of this nature never will happen again. In case there is anyone not familiar with the facts of the case. I will restate them briefly. Early in the afternoon of November 23. Mr. Kudirka. a radioman on the Soviet fishing ship Sovietskaya Litva. told a Coast Guard officer he intended to seek asylum. The Soviet ship at that time had rendezvoused with the Coast Guard cutter Vigilant off Marthas Vineyard. Mass.. to discuss fishing rights.
