Three U.S. citizens freed in historic prison swap being evaluated in San Antonio
The three U.S. citizens freed in a prisoner swap with Russia landed in San Antonio early Friday morning so they can spend time at a Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC) facility that helps the formerly incarcerated re-enter society, the Express-News reports. After the plane carrying freed Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, former U.S. Marine Paul Whelan and radio journalist Alsu Kurmasheva touched down Thursday night at Maryland's Joint Base Andrews, the trio and their families boarded another plane for the Alamo City. That plane landed at Kelly Field in Southwest San Antonio a little after 3 a.m., the Express-News reports.
