Jessica Buchanan was an aid worker in northern Somalia helping people learn how to avoid land mines. She and a coworker were kidnapped by rebels and held in captivity for ninety-three days. They were given little food or water and were forced to sleep outside.
There is a terrific 60 minutes feature online about her ordeal and the daring rescue performed by Seal Team Six. The segment is fifteen minutes long and well worth watching.
You might also enjoy her book entitled Impossible Odds.
