Three cheers for Ms.Jessica Lynch......

Hell of a guy and hell of a deed. He deserves a medal of some kind. There's a movie here for sure.
 
Stories like this will go a long way to showing that the US and Iraq have things in common, like humanity, compassion, and courage. He shoudl get a medal!

I think it is the leadership of Iraq that should go down in flames, but this shows that the average "Mohammed" can have some feelings of humanity.

Hope that this is over soon, but we need to follow through with it all the way this time.

Born on a mountain top in West Virginia
Poorest state in the land of the free
Raised in the woods so she knew ev'ry tree
Wrestled with her brother ever since she was only three
Jessica, Jessica Lynch, Queen of the Iraqi Campaign!

In 2002 she up and enlisted,
Joining the army is what she knows,
hoping to be a teacher someday
Didn’t take her long to teach
them Iraqis there’ll be hell to pay
So she shoulders her rifle an' off she goes!
Jessica, Jessica Lynch, the girl sure showed no fear!

Off through the desert she's adrivin' along
Makin' up yarns an' a singin' a song
Itchin' fer fightin' an' rightin' a wrong
Her convoy was ambushed, but the American fight sure is strong
Jessica, Jessica Lynch, fightin’ them off like that famed buckskin buccaneer!

Tommy Franks is our general's name,
Supplying his soldiers brought Jessica to fame
Them Iraqi varmints us volunteers'll tame
'cause we got the bombs with the sure-fire aim
Jessica, Jessica Lynch, Queen of the Iraqi Campaign!

Headed to war from the ol' home place
Because Saddam was makin’ us give chase
Fightin' an' burnin' at a devil's pace
South from the swamps of Basra she race
Jessica, Jessica Lynch, trackin’ old Saddam down!

Fought bravely and heroicly thru the second Gulf War
till the Iraqis was whipped an' peace was in store
An' while she was handlin' this risky chore
Made herself a legend for evermore
Jessica, Jessica Lynch, Queen of the Iraqi Campaign!

President Bush give his word and he give his hand
that our Iraqi friends could keep their land
An' the US took the stand
that justice was due every Iraqi band
Jessica, Jessica Lynch, Fightin’ to keep that promise dear!

Now that gal is coming home from war
She fought the fight we’d all couldn’t ignore
An American hero was just what we needed
Right up there with Davy Crockett who never heeded
Jessica, Jessica Lynch, the girl who don’t know no fear!

Her land is biggest an' her land is best
From grassy plains to the mountain crest
She’s ahead of us all meetin' the test
Followin' Davey’s legend into the west
Jessica, Jessica Lynch, Queen of the Iraqi Campaign!
