I wasn't there, I don't know if she earned it or not. I don't think that highly of the Bronze Star without V device anyway. It's like getting an MSM during war time. Nice, but not a "hero" medal. Who knows, I may get one for finding flat bed trucks on two occasions when no one else could get them. I don't think hero unless it has that V. Then I want to hear the story over a beer. To be honest, people already make fun of me when I wear my Class "A"s. I'd prefer to leave here without anything new. Hopefully, they'll just have us old guys add stars to our SWA. I saw PFC Lynch for a few minutes while we waited for her plane to Germany. She seemed very nice, very modest and very tough. According to the stories I've read in newspapers, she continues to be all those things. She is an American soldier. I'm proud to be one with her.
