Whats The Big Deal?

[Stang]

About Jessica Lynch? Yes I know she survived the horrible capture and the things that happened to her and Im glad she survived and is able to tell us about it. But its all I see when I turn on the TV. What about all the others that gave their lives and died? Isnt it part of the "job" you do when you sign up and lay your life down in a war? There was a guy from our state that was in the same squad as her and his mother said he died helping her and the others. He hasnt been recognized at all except one time when they interviewed his mother on the local news.

Just wondering why she is so special than anyone else out there. There are more out there giving their lives and should be recognized also.

We where at the store last weekend with our friend that is in the Army and when he saw her picture on every magazine in the newstand he got mad. Never asked him why but Im sure its along the same lines as I.
