I don't think any war is worth having our soldiers killed.
From Jessica Lynch
Certain days I think definitely because we went in there and we got Saddam and that was our mission. On other days, we lost so many lives and so many brothers and sisters... on that aspect, no.
I woke up and all I could see was Iraqis standing all around me, looking down upon me. I knew at that moment something terrible had happened and I wasn't in the right place.
Honesty has always been very important to me.
I remember the first time I put on the Army uniform. I just felt like a totally different person - I felt proud.
I don't come from a rich family - it's not like we lived in a cardboard box, but we didn't have a ton of money.
I grew up in Palestine, West Virginia, which is mostly a farming community; there aren't a lot of jobs.
