The NYT reports.
“Twelve Boars and coach are out of the cave. Everyone is safe. Now we are waiting to welcome our frogmen,” read a post on the Thai Navy SEAL Facebook page on Tuesday night.
Soon after, another post went up: “We are not sure if this is a miracle, a science, or what. All the thirteen Wild Boars are now out of the cave.”
Also in the article are quotes from the letters the boys wrote to their family when they were still trapped:
One boy promised to do his chores when he gets home. Another asked for barbecued pork....
“Don’t worry about me,” wrote Ekkarat Wongsookchan, 13, who is called Bew. “I’ve been away for two weeks. I’ll help Mom every day. I’ll be back soon.”
“I’m happy in here,” wrote Panumat Saengdee, 14, known as Mix. “The SEAL team takes very good care of us.”
Beautiful! What a lesson in gratitude.

Immigration probably has an effect on low income workers (and an even greater effect on low information voters, like FullMoon). ""
LOL. Living rent free in baby boys head. Winning.
Re Cave boys.
Expect full (mostly) factual story in a week or two as typical with big news stories.
Apparently the boys were unconscious when they were taken out.
"Thai boys were passed "sleeping" through cave: rescue diver"
Althouse [making camera-lens shape with fingers]: Idea for the movie: The one SEAL who died becomes a supernatural being who makes the extraction possible. The truth is, all the boys and the coach would have died, and he had a vision of that sad future and therefore chose to release his hold on life to enter the spirit world. From there, he guided each of the boys through the place where he would otherwise have died. In the end, the living SEALs receive all the praise for their expert technical work and their courage, and the spirit SEAL witnesses the scene with humble, gracious love and ascends into Heaven.
