Two U.S. Soldiers Missing in Baghdad

Thursday, June 26, 2003

WASHINGTON — Two American soldiers appear to have been abducted in Iraq, defense officials said Thursday.

The men and their Humvee had been stationed at an observation posted near the town of Balad, north of Baghdad (search), when they went missing Wednesday night, according to Pentagon officials who spoke on condition of anonymity.

A search by Apache attack helicopters (search) was started as soon as they were noticed missing, one official said, declining to say how their absence was noticed.
