#1 I wonder if these are the troops from the supply convoy that got ambushed in Al-Nasyria. If they are good because I was afraid that we would not be seeing them again. Has the five sided nut house said who the bodies retieved from the hospital in Al-Nasyria are?

#3 The rescued POWs were identified as Army Spc. Edgar Hernandez, 21, of Mission, Texas; Army Spc. Joseph Hudson, 23, of Alamogordo, N.M.; Army Spc. Shoshana Johnson, 30, of Fort Bliss, Texas; Army Pfc. Patrick Miller, 23, of Park City, Kan.; Army Sgt. James Riley, 31, of Pennsauken, N.J.; Army Chief Warrant Officer 2 Ronald D. Young, Jr., 26, of Lithia Springs, Ga.; and Army Chief Warrant Officer 2 David S. Williams, 30, of Orlando, Fla.

Young and Williams are the Apache helicopter pilots who were captured after their aircraft was downed during a mission. The other five are members of the Army's 507th Maintenance Unit whose vehicle was ambushed when it took a wrong turn early in the war.

#5 I am VERY HAPPY NOW

I can't wait to hear their stories: i wanna know how the Iraqis treated them.

Well done to all of them, they made it through alive: nothing else in life should hold any fear for them now after this!
