I watched most of it. I'm so, so happy to see them all alive and okay!!! What an amazing rescue operation!!!
 
Now if only the media will leave them alone for a while and allow them to heal physically and somewhat mentally. The mental part will take a while I'm sure. But right now, I think those men need peace and time with their families. Just my two cents.
 
I read about all of this in the paper. An interesting rescue operation. Amazing work by the guys to survive for 17 days on rations! I'm surprised their air didn't run out down there in that time.
 
No kidding. And then to have to wait for another 50 days before they were freed......I'd have gone insane.
