<<<Fourth, information collected by U.S. intelligence agencies during the last 19 years, in the form of live-sighting, hearsay, and other intelligence reports, raises questions about the possibility that a small number of unidentified U.S. POWs who did not return may have survived in captivity.>>>

There is a natural tendancy of friends and relatives to find what happened to the missing-which is a fine thing.

What is not right is to picture them locked up starved and tortured for the last 32 years. Thats highly unlikely.

Some may have stayed overseas to avoid returning to be prosecuted as war criminals in the US as defined by Kerry.
We can blame Kerry for those few.

But others may have found their calling, established a church or a wood working shop, happily married to a native girl. In that case they would probably contact home unless thay have lost their memory.

I would conclude they are most likely either dead or have personal reasons to stay away. and in either case their is no need to expedite a search. TWT
