  She seems a little bitter about the press Jessica Lynch received and she didn't.

  I would be to....My unit is the one who broke through....and rescued...the group

  Bitter about someone else getting more press than you? Hmmm.
  
  I personally wouldn't care if I had any press at all. In fact I'd probably appreciate none.
  
  On a separate note.....great job on the rescue.

  Johnson asked to be medically discharged from the military in part because she felt other soldiers resented her over the attention her POW status attracted

  no they didnt resent her, they were probably pissed because she kept complaining about how much more attention jessica lynch got.
  
  i wouldnt be bitter either, i would be happy to be alive.

  Congrts on the rescue.
  
  Some people look for recognition, some dont want it.
  
  My brother is the latter. When the pirates were shot last year my brother got so many inquiries from people if it was the unit he was in. his response was..."nope, but if it was I wouldnt tell ya anyways". But then again......much of his stuff is classified and cannot talk bout it.
