It was a very brief convo/short panels addressing this. They (mc and his friends) said because they've (the two guys) been gone for so long, they might as well be dead but the mc and his friends have an ever so slight hope that they survived. I think the lieutenant commented that he is convinced they're dead. Take what I say with a grain of salt because my memory sucks lol
No confitmation but Kim sad it had been 10 days so they were probably dead.
Did they ever mention what happened to the two guys who drove off and went looking for the other command post?
