Real "Jessica Lynch" may go unnoticed. Telegraph

Due to misinterpretation of gender in Iraqi comm intercepts:

Seemed to me that they were handing out Bronze Stars to the 507th bunch like they were National Service Medals. Not the first time; too bad that it is not uncommon when the brass have their needs.

Probably the article is right, and they don't want to bring any focus to his being left behind*, if that happened.

* these were not Marines, ooorah!
