They had better well find him. Finding the flight suit without him in it is
one heck of a pointer.

I mean, if they found that B-24 crew in the Libyan desert years after
WW2....

Capt. Speicher
The search for downed Navy pilot Capt. Michael Scott Speicher was
in the news again this week. Vice Adm. Lowell Jacoby, director of the
Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), told a Senate committee that the
initials "MSS" carved in a prison wall in Iraq are now being examined
by the FBI for clues to the pilot's whereabouts. People interested in
a fuller story of the search for Capt. Speicher can view a secret DIA
report in the new book "Rumsfeld's War" by column co-author Rowan
Scarborough. The DIA report reveals that the Iraqi defector who
claimed the naval officer is alive is most likely a liar. All his
assertions have been disproved by witnesses he said would support his
story.
Capt. Speicher's F-18 Hornet was shot down on the first night of
Operation Desert Storm. The Navy first listed him as killed in action,
but changed it to missing after the defector's testimony.
