Now, day 15 has arrived and the Hotel Montana in Petion Ville hold the lives or whereabouts of at least 60 foreigners including 17 American Citizens. As hope fades for finding anyone alive, the U.S Marines and other search groups continue to dig through the dangerous rubble made of concrete blocks and slabs. They refuse to call it a search and rescue effort or a recovery. Probably because they know that in recovery, bulldozers roam the land and minimize any chances of locating the bodies of the missing Americans to be brought back to the United States for a formal burial.
