Afghan duo missing from Ga. base
ATLANTA - Two Afghanistan
Air Force maintenance personnel in training at Moody Air Force Base, Ga., have
been missing from the base since Dec. 7, when they did not report back to duty
after a weekend break from training. The duo had been screened before entering
the country and there is no indication they pose a threat, base officials said.
The men did not report Dec. 7 for continued training with the 81st Fighter
Squadron, base officials said. Federal, local and state agencies are working
with the military to locate them. The names of the two men, who were scheduled
to graduate at the end of December, have not been released. The duo had been at
Moody under training order since February. (Source: The AP
