I heard that too. You beat me to posting it because I went looking for a link to a story. No story yet.

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Six or seven U.S. troops who were previously listed as missing have been located and are apparently in good health, Gen. Tommy Franks, commander in chief of U.S. Central Command, said Sunday.

It was not clear whether the troops were listed as prisoners of war or missing in action, Franks said. They are in U.S. military custody, he said.
CNN hasn't confirmed whether they were actually POW's or just MIA, but either way its' good news to know that they're alive and apparently in good health

I heard on the radio that some of the parents/wives were watching when they showed them on TV. What a relief for them

This is great news
