Somewhere --- investigators believe . Buried beneath the snow

An A-10 attack jet like this one carrying four 500-pound bombs
piloted by Capt. Craig Button. The Air Force now says there's evidence the

too rough to risk a ground search.

Today at the Pentagon . Investigators refused to speculate on
a possible motive - reports Capt. Button may have committed suicide
