Captain Scott Speicher

It’s been more than 12 years since Captain Scott Speicher was shot down while on a combat mission over Iraq during the first night of Desert Storm, becoming the first American casualty of the war. Initially classified by the Department of Defense as KIA/BNR (killed in action, body not recovered), Captain Speicher made history again in January 2001, when he became the first American service member ever to be switched from a status of KIA to MIA (missing in action).
On October 11, 2002, Scott’s status was changed to POW, an acknowledgement by the Department of Defense that he is alive and a prisoner in Iraq. Get the full story here.
