Recapture is a term that can be used to describe the act of rescuing, retrieving, or retaking something. It is often used in reference to military operations, where it means to take back control of an area or territory that has been lost. It can also be used in other contexts, such as when a company regains control of a product or service that had been lost to a competitor. In all cases, the goal of recapture is to regain something that was previously lost.
