(BOISE) – The Obama administration is stepping up its efforts to bring home an Idaho soldier who has been a prisoner of the Taliban for over three years. Intelligence officials say that a prisoner exchange with up to five Guantanamo Bay detainees could be in the works, while others are seeking peace with the Taliban. The 26-year-old Hailey native is believed to be in a violent, insurgent-controlled region on the Afghan-Pakistani border.
