The 507th. Heros?

Jessica Lynch gets the "Bronze Star" for heroism
A "Campaign Ribbon", "POW" medal, and "Purple Heart" are justly earned. But a "Bronze Star"???
Better yet, a Court Martial for the Captain who allowed his unit to get split up and ambushed because he tryed to take a short cut (he thought!) and was too vain to radio for assistance. At least the Sgt (2nd group) showed a little leadership and radioed for help, and was recued by the MARINES. Then again the Captain probable remembered the lectures(at canidate school/WestPoint) of the humiliation the Army took when the MARINES save their butt (the impossible Pusan landing behind enemy lines!) in Korea.
Yea. I'm biased.....twenty years as a Storm Troop (MARINE)....

Anybody know where to get a copy of her "BS" (BronzeStar or BullShit, take your pick) citation???
