Presidential Joy At Success Of Rescue Mission

US President Bill Clinton on Thursday (8/6) expressed pleasure at the news of the recovery of the US pilot shot down six days ago over Serb-controlled western Bosnia. "I know all of you join me in rejoicing at the rescue of Captain Scott O'Grady," he said, calling the airman's bravery "an inspiration to all of us." At a White House ceremony for new police officers, Clinton said: "He was well-trained and well-prepared, but he also rose to an extraordinary challenge." The President said he had spoken to the O'Grady family to let them know the pilot had been found by a team of American marines. Clinton extended his compliments to the rescue team: "Our country has the finest armed forces in the world and we are very, very proud of them and ecstatically happy today."
