Is a lot of things going missing?
 Quoting: Harbinger Of Truth


It's actually pretty common for equipment to go missing on a field training exercise (FTX). There is usually a rigorous search... lasting a few hours to perhaps 3 days. After that, the time becomes more valuable than the equipment, and the search stops. The soldier(s) who lost the gear get disciplined, and things go back to normal.

What is odd about this is case
1. the length of the search
2. there being a published 'valuation' of the missing equipment
3. That it made the civilian news at all

It's definitely not a typical situation... but I don't have enough info to do more than vaguely speculate on what is actually "missing" to keep them searching for so long.

Even so, my best two guesses are either A) they have a fugitive, not a lost article; and/or B) there are multiple combat weapons involved in the "loss"...
