Jessica Lynch

Who else lives coming on the 31st also?

Jessica Lynch will be here on the 31st.

Philip Hamilton will be on the 16th in-house.

Yep.

I don't think Bergdahl's a hero.

You think Bergdahl's a hero? He is a deserter, and he put our brothers and sisters at arms in jeopardy.

We have the opposite of that relationship, that we're going to be talking to Jessica Lynch, who was held captive, and is a hero in my eyes.

But just because you serve doesn't make you a hero.

Wow.

And then eventually that dovetails into you being a member of the 75th Army Ranger Regiment where you find yourself in a situation, listen people, where he is right there during the Jessica Lynch raid.

Remember that? Wow.

Take us to that moment and what it was like to be part of that regiment.

You don't learn that in the Marine Corps.

Wow, it's incredible to hear these stories.

And your very first combat mission was the Jessica Lynch raid?

Jessica Lynch raid, yeah.

Welcome, guys, to another Radio Archive Hour from the Phil Hendrie Radio Hall of Fame Show on our website philhendrieshow.com. We take you to April 2003.

Bobbie Dooley and the rest of us were talking about the Jessica Lynch story.

This was a young soldier in Iraq.

She was driving in a convoy and somehow got, uh, lost or was, uh, otherwise, uh, attacked by, uh, enemy forces.

And, uh, for instance, Bobbi, uh, picked a bad April... uh, p-picked a bad pear out of an old lady's bag at the grocery store be- be- you know, this lady could've gotten diarrhea from it, and she thought that was a heroic thing.

Uh, let's just listen to Bobbie Dooley once again bitching and moaning that the world doesn't revolve around her.

Uh, Jessica Lynch is a private in the United States Army.

As you know, she was rescued on Tuesday.

And if we miss you, the mission will fail.

He said, example, Jessica Lynch.

Everybody is familiar with Jessica Lynch.

We missed her three times by minutes.

And he said, if you didn't deliver that power cart to the aircraft on the time it needed to be there so that the crew could pre-flight the aircraft, launch at a specific time, be at the initial point at a specific time, to get into the area of responsibility where our high-value target or our rescue E is at, we failed.

And it's been, I mean, like I was telling...

Ryan when we did the show Chris has become a friend of the show and um it's it's amazing to to see what they're doing by the way if you guys have not had a chance go over and follow Tig it's on the top of my page Jessica Lynch is also trying to to boost her page too so the community is trying to help each other so this video comes out and uh that's next week and is this some of the best work you've done do you think I mean with the perspective that you have and You seem to be really excited about it.

Vaguely

...

And don't think it would be the first time because they always do that every time they get

Jessica Lynch.

Remember Jessica Lynch?

Yeah.

Yeah.

means that they're just shoring up the people that already support the iran war What about the other 70%? They didn't do anything for them because this guy was not compelling.

Not at all.

I mean, the Jessica Lynch thing that they faked, that was compelling.
