(KSL News) A militant video gave a Utah man his first glimpse of his son since he was kidnapped in Iraq two months ago.

John Young is among four Americans and an Austrian who appear in the video.

The men were working as security contractors in Iraq when they were kidnapped.

Each man appears in the video separately and at least three are in handcuffs.

One of the hostages says the men will be released once prisoners in Iraq are released from British and American custody.
