Is it possible the details will remain classified?

“The identity and 'story' of the SEAL that was recovered today will probably never become public knowledge, and that’s the way it has to be.”
Here's another followup story:
07/04/2005 Afghanistan – Rescued serviceman evaluated. Unspecified number of troops still missing
An U.S. serviceman rescued from the mountains of Afghanistan was being evaluated Monday, an official said, while American forces pushed on with their urgent search for other team members.
An U.S. serviceman rescued from the mountains of Afghanistan was being evaluated Monday, an official said, while American forces pushed on with their urgent search for other team members.
A member of an elite U.S. military team missing in Afghan mountains since last week was rescued, an U.S. Defence Department official said. He declined to say when the rescue occurred or provide other details, including a reaction to reports that the team consisted of several U.S. Navy Seals.
Marie Shaw, a spokeswoman for Landstuhl Regional Medical Centre in Germany, told The Associated Press on Monday that the rescued serviceman was still in Afghanistan. A decision whether to send him to the medical centre in Germany would come later Monday or Tuesday, she said.
U.S. military spokesman Lt. Col. Jerry O'Hara declined to comment on the rescued serviceman, but said an unspecified number of other troops were still missing in the mountains. ``We still have missing servicemembers. The search continues and all available assets are being used,'' he said.
Thanks a million for the continuing updates. Happy 4th to all.
