Vietnam is a dense jungle that when the planes crashed, and/or the troops were captured it was easy for the Vietcong to relocate them without American troops finding them. There were tunnel systems used by the Vietcong to travel without being seen as well. Between those factors and the camps it was hard to locate all of our men. There is speculation of some of them being relocated out of Vietnam altogether upon capture as well.
