Former POW Jessica Lynch, whose wounding and rescue made her the Iraq (news - web sites) war's most famous soldier, is shown in an interview with the Associated Press in Charleston, W.Va., Monday, March 22, 2004. A year after her ordeal, Lynch continues to grapple with questions ranging from the personal (when to enter college? when to marry?) to the existential (what does her survival mean?).(AP Photo/Bob Bird)

1. Wasn't she in the army to get her college tuition paid?

Let's see if they try to renege on that.

3. I joined to get the GI bill and get a degree

Which I did. She isn't going to do it but someone needs to point out that that is why many people join the military.

2. on the one hand her bravery and determination is inspiring

On the other hand there are thousands more servicemen and women with injuries as bad or worse than hers. I'd like to hear more about them, all of them, in the press, lest the public get the impression that Ms. Lynch is a special case.
