The ridiculous spectacle of rescued POW Pfc. Jessica Lynch, the feisty, ballyhooed warrior of the Army’s 507th Maintenance Company, which was butchered early on in Iraq, occasioned the usual war whoops. Yet no one asked a simple question: What in heaven’s name was a hundred-pound girl, barely out of pigtails and high school, doing in a combat zone?

The only US Army soldier who got a Bronze Star for being cold cocked in a truck wreck, Jessica Lynch. My uncle got a WWII Service Medal only for landing on Omaha Beach with the 5th Engineering Bde! Where was his BSM?
