After 444 days in captivity, Kathryn Koob and another hostage stepped into a sea of flags at Rhein-Main Air Base. Fans shouted welcome home as banners read We didn’t forget you and Full Deck 52. The pair, now returnees, spent their first night at Wiesbaden Air Force Hospital and connected with families by phone.
