Marine Hassoun recovers in hospital
A US Marine, who resurfaced in Lebanon nearly three weeks after he vanished in a reported kidnapping in Iraq, is doing well and recovering at a US military hospital in Germany, a Marine spokesman said today.
Cpl. Wassef Ali Hassoun “has had a full night’s sleep and some breakfast. He’s up and awake now, and he has been given telephone cards and access to a phone,” said Maj. Tim Keefe, who visited Hassoun this morning.
