US forces have found six U.S. troops previously classified as missing, Gen. Tommy Franks said Sunday. The six appear to be healthy.
Franks added he had been reluctant to release the information because he was unsure whether the six were among five listed as missing or seven listed as POWs. "They appear to be healthy," Franks told ABC News.
Franks said he was reluctant to discuss the matter further until he had better information — but he made sure to underscore once again his commitment to rescuing coalition captives. "For sure we're going to take care of our own," he told CNN. "This is very good news." (Albawaba.com)
