It was the fucking media that played the story based upon "sources". I know what "RESCUE" means and implies when used by the military. It is fucking civilians and civilian press than do not know what "RESCUE' means when used in a military sense. Basically when any MIA or POW is recovered it is deemed a rescue and it is factually a rescue. In example if a pilot bails out over the desert...even though there may not be an enemy combatant within a hundred miles...his extraction is a "rescue". A soldier ends up MIA during an operation and is recovered...it is deemed a rescue when he is located and extracted. It is the press that glamourizes and turns truth into misinformation.
