Video Shows U.S. Soldier Captured In Afghanistan
Jul 19th, 2009 · A Taliban-affiliated Web site began circulating a video of a captured U.S. soldier on Sunday, just as American commanders there are shifting their counterinsurgency strategy.

Mike Mullen, says the biggest change he's seen in the country is the bulked up U.S. presence.
