Her escuers are the REAL heros !

Agreed. Hero has become quite relative. Relatively speaking then she is a hero I guess. She fought back and was captured and I'm sure endured some very nasty stuff.

I'd say she was brave and lucky.

Many here have lowered the bar since she is a woman. that is only part of the problem.

Why any country would willingly expose young women to this is beyond me...brave or not.

I guess any soldier who fires back is a hero...to a degree I guess. It's a bit vexing. When I grew up (as you), the benchmark for heroism was much much higher and alas heroes were more often killed than not.

SHE is a hereo, her rescurers are hereos, They are all hereos!

Her rescuers are the REAL heros !

Yes they are, but all the forces over there are heroes, American, Bristish, Aussie, Polish etc.
