On behalf of Jessi, our family would like to offer our deepest, most sincere thanks for this show of affection."

"Furthermore, we can't leave Germany without expressing our gratitude to the professionals at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center and the Air Force Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron.

We are forever thankful for the compassion with which they have treated her and the other injured service members."

From the moment we arrived, they took care of our most basic needs, allowing us to focus on our daughter's recovery.

You touched our hearts, and we will never forget you." more...

[ANALYSIS OF WOMEN IN THE MILITARY]

PRO: Jessica Lynch Opens Wider Roles for Women. Women in all of the armed forces are barred from areas of ground combat. But, caught in an ambush, Lynch did what she'd been trained to do. She defended herself, thus putting the lie to the myth that women aren't up to this sort of thing. more...

CON: The next battle for Pfc. Jessica Lynch. No one doubts the bravery of the women of the 507th. Let's just hope that Pfc. Lynch is as brave in confronting the feminists, when it comes time to address these truths, as she was in standing up to the paramilitary in Iraq. more...
