With respect to Walter's somewhat earlier posting relating to US presence, I spoke to US Navy SEALS above the crash site at the time of the crash so can confirm their presence and their involvement in a recovery operation. I cannot confirm their precise role. They may not have had one beyond being asked to help in a general way. I mention this presence only as I know privately the issue of US presence has been a source of debate. The US was there the day after and on June 4 also. Why? No idea.>>
RE the landlady bit: I had a pretty good witness standing next to me whilst I spoke to her; as US SEALS were there off and on for YEARS I would have thought that the locals would have a pretty good idea of what was what have you ever been to that part of the world? the locals are quite perceptive I dont know what parts of the provinces gave you your condescending view of the general population.
