There was a soldier that during that ambush, took out a mortar nest and shot several Iraqis to save the lives of the "other POW's" that day. He received the SilverStar for his Audie Murphy type bravery. He is featured on 60 minutes tomorrow night. Now to me, this kid is a bonafide hero.
And he hasn't bashed the military in order to get an interview either.

Jessica Lynch didn't bash the military in order to get an interview. Everyone wanted to interview her before she was even rescued. As far as the guy who's going to be on 60 Minutes, his interview is a result of complaints about all the attention given to Jessica Lynch.
