They identify the U-2 pilot in the story linked below, but there's no further info on the incident.
Rest in peace sir! I can't say that I knew him, other than speaking with him at debrief, nodding to him in the gym at PSAB or wondering whether he chewed when he flew when I saw him buying some Copenhagen in Korea, but, like I said, rest in peace and thank you!

#1  Lord, guard and guide the men who fly
Through the great spaces in the sky.
Be with them always in the air,
In darkening storms or sunlight fair;
Oh, hear us when we lift our prayer,
For those in peril in the air.


Mike
