Just heard some great news about the rescue of PFC Jessica Lynch... They said it was a Navy Seal/Rangers Operation, can't wait to hear the details on that one...

So far I've heard on Fox news that it was a fluke of Information that they got about a doctor that had treated her for wounds. That's how they found out exactly where she was. Now if we can just find the rest of her unit, she was apart of the 507th that got lost and then ambushed, I also wonder why she wasn't with the rest of the POWs?

Maybe she was being held by a different group? She wasn't televised with the others.

They said she was part of the 507th that was attacked, I wonder if she will be able to shed light on possible execution of her fellow soldiers. I know that to release it would possibly endanger those still being held but America does need to know what and who we are facing and the sacrifice of our armed forces.

It's real good to hear that an American has been brought home!

They have said now that she was separated from her group and brought to a hospital and that is where she was rescued from. I never saw her listed as a POW only MIA from the defense link site. They're saying she was showed on video tape being interviewed but the only woman they showed was Johnson. I'm lost ......... Probably shouldn't draw any conclusions until she is interviewed.

According to this morning's paper, it was the CIA Team that pinpointed her location and sent in the SF. She was at a different place away from her other Soldiers because of her injuries were more serious than the others so she had to go to the hospital to be treated.
