Moody Air Force Base officials are not releasing the names or photographs of two missing Afghan trainees.
Capt. Korey Fratini said Wednesday the decision to not release the names is a U.S. Air Force decision and not one that has been made by the base commander.
"It is a matter of policy," Fratini told The Valdosta Daily Times.
The Air Force has maintained a policy of not releasing the names or images of any Afghan personnel in the interest of their personal safety and the safety of their families back in Afghanistan, the captain said.
Fratini said the fact the two men are missing and being sought by federal and local law-enforcement agencies has not changed the military's position.

Images have circulated on social media with claims they came from the Lanier County public school system.
Fratini emphasized that Moody officials did not share the photos with the school system and that photographs were only sent to law enforcement.
A Lanier County school official confirmed sending out an email with the images in hopes of finding the men, and also said the Air Force contacted school officials after the email had been sent telling them to stop sharing the information.
The captain said the concerns of The Valdosta Daily Times regarding the public's right and need to know as much information as possible has been shared up the chain of command.

IOW, someone high-up in the Obama regime doesn't want Americans who they are.
I guess that means that they have some unknown means. I wonder what that means?
As I suspected Monday, it’s been reported today that they haven’t been seen since Friday.
“in the interest of their personal safety and the safety of their families”
What about my personal safety?
If I had to guess, their names are probably Muhommed something, and they probably look Arab and have beards.
"Durka Durka Mohammed Jihad!"
BTW, remember the beginning of Team America set in PARIS and the onset of a terrorist attack on civilians? HOW PROPHETIC THAT WAS, HUH.
Perhaps these two are part of the plot to ensure 0dunga stays in office.
IIRC, they were trained as mechanics, not pilots.
No feet, huh?
That was my transportation for many years of my young life.
and my bicycle.
Worry about your own personal safety? That’s not Who We Are!
Maybe they are Super Top Secret or something. I bet Clown Prince nobama is “servicing” them right now prior to making them Czars of Immigration.
Three Afghan soldiers left a Cape Cod military base last year before being caught trying to cross into Canada at Niagara Falls. They printed their pictures in the paper. If memory serves, they were hoping for asylum in Canada but I think they were sent back to Afghanistan.

The Pentagon is going to be unhappy with you.
The base commander has courageously covered his butt. “a U.S. Air Force decision and not one that has been made by the base commander. “
The AF hasn't had Air Police in over twenty years. They got rid of the AFSC and all are Security Forces now.
At the Valdosta Mall today, there was a huge police van and a couple cruisers near where we parked. The scope the top of the van was high, scanning the parking lots on that side. I wonder, would image so, that there were the same vehicles on the other 3 sides of the mall. Of course, we do not know for sure, but it is easy to assume that they were looking for the two renegades, and trying to make sure that no suspicious activity was going on.
They’ve been here since last February. They fly over our area during practice.
Sounds like a plot line from Season 4 of "24"
