Hostages
Interesting difference between Israel and America.
In Israel, when our enemies hold even a single one of our people hostage, it's a national issue of strategic importance, and eventually we pay for his release with many hundreds of jailed criminals, sometimes including convicted murderers.
When the same happens to an American serviceman, we aren't even informed of his name - assuming we hear about the case at all.
