(read this in argh! USA Today)


The AC-130 was found by navy divers around Mar 3-7 off the coast of Saudi
 Arabia or Kuwait, forget which.  If I recall from the article correctly
the bodies of the crew and what not were not found.

Some scuttlebut has it that there are 14 MIA from 7th SF Group out of Bragg
though--that's what our SF MSG says anyway.   Hope this helps.
