Gotta dusagree here. She is entitled to a Purple Heart, most likely (though she was NOT stabbed, shot, etc.!) and the POW medal. Why a Star at all? No one witnessed any of the media hype and I seriously question that "fired all of her ammo killing numerous Iraqi soldiers"...let's get this into perspective...many, many of our Nam POWs came back after injuries at the hands of captors and received a PH and POW medal...Lynch is no super hero.

I completely concur.......

though she was NOT stabbed, shot, etc.!

Actually I heard on the radio that the military had reversed their statements on that -- i.e., she did have gunshot wounds.

I wish you bitter people would get a grip.

Jessica cannot help the media frenzy, or the fact that people want to cash in on her wonderful story.

Ignoring her doesn't help anyone else. She is someone we can put a face to and focus on.

That is always the case. The whole world will watch the rescue of a little girl in a well. It's human nature and you people would be posting ... why focus on one little girl, a lot of little girls are suffering.

Some of you all require a big barf alert. Enjoy this one young girl's happy ending and shut up.
