U.S. Special Forces have gotten her back. It's on CNN right now. She's a female P.O.W., PFC Jessica Lynch, from the 507th Maintennacne Company and was apparently one of the people the Iraqis showed on TV. I would guess it was a SEAL Team that got her, but Delta Force does this kind of thing too. Naturally the military is reluctant to discuss any details of the rescue, as well they should be.

Great news

PFC Lynch apparently is one very lucky soldier. Two broken legs and a broken arm, but she's alive. Seems like everyone else she was with is not.

Anyone find it ironic that she's going to be pulled out of Iraq and be sent home to Palestine?

Maybe she told them she was from Palestine, and that's how she survived...

Yes this is VERY good news. It was a beautiful Manuver how they did it too. On the News they were saying that the Marines were diverting the enemy from the front when the Specail Op's teams went in there and rescued her. Just like a scene from a movie. It's sad that the other 11 were not alive.
