My Comment: Unlike the Plame affair .... there has been zero if any news coverage on this story. Media bias .... nah!!!!

The fact that many of them have returned to the battlefield since their release does not surprise me, but if I was a CIA officer whose identity is now known to the enemy .... hmmmm .... this is something that would definitely be of concern to me.
