Military finds remains of last missing soldier in Iraq

http://fayobserver.com/articles/2012...ac=fo.military

"BEIRUT - The U.S. military has recovered the remains of the last U.S. service member missing in Iraq, ending a nearly six-year ordeal involving shadowy militants and a tragic love story, his family said Sunday.

About 1 a.m. Sunday, a U.S. officer knocked on the door of the family home in Ann Arbor, Mich., with news that Army Staff Sgt. Ahmed Altaie was confirmed dead. The officer had no details yet on how or when he died, said Entifadh Qanbar, Altaie's uncle and an aide to Iraqi politician Ahmad Chalabi. Altaie was the last U.S. soldier unaccounted for in Iraq.................."

The book is closed on the missing - except of course Bergdahl.
