When I read the Army report and watched a long interview with her, it seems she may have been responsible for the deaths of the Humvee occupants.

While the two males they picked up instantly grabbed the SAW and got it going, she says she continued screaming and distracting her NCO passenger until the female driver crashed the vehicle and they were all killed, except for Jessica.

Do you think it was her fault she was put in that postition or could the Army have recognized that she was not combat soldier material? Blaming her is pointless.

There are reports and accounts, exactly what happened and why, will always be a matter of contention. You may be correct and still be wrong. When action is called for, sometimes it is better not to act precipitously.

In combat such as this, I suspect, that most people are just not mentally prepared to act physically.
