Jessica Lynch did *nothing* to deserve her Bronze Star. She was
injured in a auto accident, and never fired a single round. She
deserves a Purple Heart and POW medal of course, but not a Bronze
Star, especially with a Combat "V". I have a Combat "V", and I had to
do a lot more than wreck my vehicle to get it. No, PFC Lynch didn't
do anything deserving of the BS at all. This is simple politics at
it's worst.


And just how many combat medics would you want to take combat awards away from
simply because they never fired a shot?

I will say, however, the media pay too much attention to her just as they did
with Scott Grady.
