I don't know that I'd apply the word hero to Ms. Lynch but, regardless of her original motives, she DID complete all her training, she DID get deployed overseas and she DID serve her country. That DOES deserve a certain amount of respect, doesn't it ... maybe not "hero status" ... but some measure of respect. As for putting the term "hero" in the context of a Rambo "shoot them all and let God sort them out", that's BS. The army is about team work and everyone doing their jobs to make it all work. Some people have combat arms positions, others do not. She was a transportation specialist, for Christ's sake! Give her a break. Besides this is all media hype and not necessarily her doing. What would YOU do in her position?
