Buggs and Aquino were with her the whole time, why didn't they do anything then? Miller fought after the Lynch Humvee crashed, why didn't he do anything before that? Your logic is senseless.
Good, I can see that you are starting to come around now. (/sarcasm) I know it is hard to accept. You wanted to believe Lynch was truly a hero, you wanted to admire her, and you thought you could use her as a symbol of a great heroic woman, but I had to interject truth into the story. I didn't get any pleasure out of doing that, but when I read about all those men who died in her unit and group during that battle and role she played in their deaths, I had to set the record straight. She's NO HERO! Half the men in that group would likely still be alive today if she hadn't screwed up that vehicle they were towing. All through that fight they needed her support, and she had access to both Piestawa's weapon and the another automatic weapon that was in the vehicle. First sergeant Dowdy went after every troop who became disengaged from his vehicle during this battle, risking his life time and time again to make these combat pickups. He needed Jessie to give him some cover and lay down some fire, but she wouldn't fight. I know you feel betrayed. You were captivated by the first reports of her heroism, and it's hard to let that go. You were duped, but that's not you fault, and it's now time to move on. It's too late for First sergeant Dowdy, Buggs, Aquiano, Walters, and the others that died during that battle, but we need people, people like yourself, to stop tacitly supporting policies that put pretenders like Lynch in military positions that harm themselves and others that depend on them. If Lynch really has any sense of duty, she'll give up that medal and admit she shouldn't have been there.
