MOODY AIR FORCE BASE — Moody Air Force Base officials are not releasing the names or photographs of two missing Afghan trainees.

Capt. Korey Fratini said Wednesday the decision to not release the names is a U.S. Air Force decision and not one that has been made by the base commander.

“It is a matter of policy,” Fratini told The Valdosta Daily Times.

The Air Force has maintained a policy of not releasing the names or images of any Afghan personnel in the interest of their personal safety and the safety of their families back in Afghanistan, the captain said.

I remember a couple of them last year left. They were found in Canada I think.

    Mirwais Kohistani and Shirzad Rohullah failed to show up for training on Monday at Moody Air Force Base in Valdosta, Georgia
    They are part of a group of 23 who are training with the U.S. military
    Officials say they pose no threat but have ramped up efforts to find them
    Both were screened upon arriving at the base in February

'There is a well-coordinated process among federal agencies to locate the individuals as quickly as possible and return them accordingly to the proper authorities to manage their present situation.'

Moody reiterated Thursday that the men still did not pose a threat, even though efforts to find them had been ramped up.

The men have been missing since Monday--six days--and we still can't find them?

BTW, I'd like a little more information on why Moody is so sure the men do not pose a threat.
