March 31, 2004, 3:16 p.m. I've been trying to return your wife's call, but the line is busy. I attempted to locate your son without success. If I can locate him, I will ask him to call so you know his situation. April 1, 1:26 a.m. (To Michael Berg, Berg's father) I have confirmed that your son, Nick, is being detained by the U.S. military in Mosul. He is safe. He was picked up approximately one week ago. We will try to obtain additional information regarding his detention and a contact person you can communicate with directly. April 1, 5:23 a.m. (To Suzanne Berg, Berg's mother) I have been able to confirm that your son is being detained by the U.S. military. I am attempting to identify a person with the U.S. military or FBI here in Iraq who you can contact directly with your questions. April 2, 1:25 p.m. I have been trying to identify a local contact here, but given the security situation in Iraq it is not easy. I will continue to try. Copyright 2004 by The Associated Press.
