JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- It's been 13 years since Scott Speicher's jet was
shot down over Iraq in the first Gulf War, but the military isn't giving up
hope of learning what happened to him.
Military search crews have returned to the site where the Navy pilot's jet crashed.
Also, officials have been questioning captured Iraqi officials, including Saddam
Hussein, about his fate.
Navy officials say crews have checked more than 50 sites, including hospitals,
prisons and homes in the region.
Speicher's FA-18 Hornet was the first plane shot down over Iraq during the war.
Sen. Bill Nelson has made it his personal mission to get answers for Speicher's
loved ones. The Florida lawmaker says he believes Speicher could still be alive.
Nelson says "soon or later, somebody is going to talk."
