Lets hope these two guys turn up safe and sound. The whole affair seems a mystery, especially as to why they even left the base.

U.S. and NATO officials confirmed that two American Navy personnel went missing Friday in the eastern province of Logar, after an armored sports utility vehicle was seen driving into a Taliban-held area.
