US Pilots in Libya Tell Their Story

The World

The NATO air war over Libya last year ended without any American casualties.

Only one plane was lost, a US Air Force F-15 on March 21, 2011.

On board were a pilot, Maj. Kenneth Harney and a weapons officer, Capt. Tyler Stark.

Now that the official investigation into the incident is over, they can tell their stories.

Anchor Marco Werman speaks to them on a line from Cambridge, near their base in England.
