On this MUST-SEE or LISTEN Episode, we were honored to speak with United States Army Veteran and former P.O.W. Jessica Lynch. On March 23, 2003, Jessica was serving as a unit supply specialist with the 507th Maintenance Company when Iraqi troops ambushed her convoy during the Battle of Nasiriyah; Lynch was seriously injured during the offensive and captured by Iraqi soldiers shortly afterward. Her subsequent recovery by U.S. special operations forces on April 1, 2003, received considerable media coverage as it was the first successful rescue of an American prisoner of war since World War II and the first ever of a woman. Jessica was gracious enough to share her lifelong journey, from her childhood dreams to the dreadful, unimaginable 9 days in captivity, to her heroic rescue, and the blessed life she thanks God for today. If there was ever one episode to SHARE, THIS IS IT. Tune in to hear this exclusive interview and how you too can help our most deserving assistance, our Veterans.
