The pentagon did release the story that was printed... So I hear. I honestly don't think the she-rambo element of the story got as much play as the sweet girl next door damsel in distress element of the story did, the point is the story got HUGE without Jessica making it huge.

These are excerpts. Be careful about excerpts from books that can place more weight on the pentagon statement than she intended. I am SURE the media is also mentioned in overblowing her story. Perhaps this article didn't want to focus on that.

With regards to her family and Jessica cooperating.... When they are parked on your lawn 24-7 and you handle the media with any more class than her family has... I think you will have room to talk. I respected them, her family and her brother are on our side.

These are Americans, this family. This soldier is an American who has not acted in any way to dishonor herself. It should NOT take more than that to gain her some simple respect.
