Rescued U.S. POWs to Be Debriefed, Interviewed

Seven American prisoners of war rescued by U.S. Marines Sunday will be debriefed and interviewed, in part to see if they can provide information that could help in finding any other missing U.S. soldiers. A military spokesman says decisions on sending them elsewhere before they fly home will be made on a "case-by-case basis." Meanwhile, families of the troops celebrate. Hear NPR's Greg Allen.
