Navy veteran held hostage by Taliban describes experience
Contractor and U.S. Navy veteran Mark Frerichs was kidnapped and held hostage by Taliban forces for over two and a half years. He was released as part of a prisoner swap last September and is now adjusting to freedom and life back in America. Amna Nawaz went to Lombard, Illinois, where he’s staying with family, to sit down with Frerichs for his first television interview since being freed.
