Hmm, that's a bit debatable. There's that bit at the end of FOTR where Frodo says "I don't suppose we'll ever see them again," and Sam says "Yet we may, Mr. Frodo." Though that one's a little weird, since the movie version has Frodo, at least, knowing that hordes of Orcs were about to attack his friends and for all he knew they had died five minutes after he left - though he didn't know about the Orcs in the book. I don't *think* the movie explicitly shows Sam seeing them, maybe he lucked out and missed them. Still, it'd be odd for Frodo not to mention that fact to him at some point.
