Navy pilot Michael Scott Speicher was shot down over central-western Iraq in Jan., 1991.

That fact "leads us to conclude that elements of the former Iraqi regime know the whereabouts of Captain Speicher," the report said.

This story has interested me for years. The thought that this guy might be alive and being held is frightening. However, I keep asking one question:

What would be the end game of those holding him?

Clearly, if he was being held, he had some value at that time. He has never been used as a chip -- and I fear that while he may well have been cptured alive, he has probably long ago ben murdered or died.

God Bless him and his family. Praying for a miracle so we can bring him home.
