Since there are freepers on the other thread that aren't calling Jessica a hero, I'll throw my two cents in also: Even though she was in a maintenance unit, she did draw her weapon and took out a few Iraqis before taken captive. And despite the ordeal she's been through she's in good spirits now. She's a hero in my book.
