I would like to see more recognition of the real Heroes of the ambushed convoy.

Then ask to learn more about them. There are many great people in our forces over there and we would all be better off for knowing more of them.... But belittling Jessica as to blame for you not knowing the others - putting her bravery in quotes - makes you look small, not her.

I did not actually belittle Jessica. I think others in the convoy deserve a LOT more credit than they have received by comparison with her. For what my opinion is worth I do not grudge her the Bronze Star.

The quotes was in the title of the article. Click on the link to the news site and see for yourself. I don't change things like that. Thought about it, but as I am not the author I do not feel it is mine to change.

I have received a link in one post about Sgt Donald Walters a brave man leaving a wife and children. But if you have to ask do you really think they have been given fair credit? I don't.
