The two fellows in her unit that ran toward the Iraqi fire, dug
themselves in,fired till they were out of ammo, got clubed over the
head by a bunch of Iraqis, fought them off and then retreated back to
the unit, aqquired ammo, got under the truck for cover and then fought
as long as they could, do they get a million dollar deal as well?

I'm not saying she doesnt deserve it, but when those two troopers
were on the evening TV long after the battle, they described something
much more heroic and interesting then Ms. Lynch. Both of them didnt
think of themselves as heros, and both are still in the service. Both
also expressed a wish that they would have had more combat training
before getting in a mess like that. Think the show was Dateline NBC,
its been a while.

Steve, mind if I ask what the point of all this carping is?
The money she is getting is based on somebody's expectation
of making a profit from it. You want somebody else to get
a big bucks deal, fine, break out your money and give it to'em.

It's not that I don't have any sympathy for you point of view,
but sheee.....
