Second Missing U.S. Soldier Found

Reuters reports that a second American soldier missing in Afghanistan for the past week has been located:

The governor of Kunar, Assadullah Wafa, told Reuters Afghan forces received information on Sunday night that a wounded American was being treated by villagers in a remote mountainous part of the province:

"Our troops are trying to reach the place," he said. "Villagers have him and are treating him for wounds. But the soldier has not been handed over as yet.

"He is safe and there is no danger to his life. This is a very difficult terrain -- big trees and mountains."

Wafa said the soldier was in the same area as that where a U.S. helicopter sent to rescue the troops was shot down by militants last Tuesday, killing all 16 U.S. Special Forces soldiers aboard.

The BBC reports the soldier rescued yesterday reportedly pointed the US search team in the direction where other members of the team had gone.
