“this is a good morning to be a West Virginian. We found out last night one of our own is coming home. Jessica Lynch, a 19-year-old private first class from the 507th Ordnance Maintenance Company is in safe hands right now because of the heroism of her rescuers, the coalition forces. Jessica had been missing for 10 days. She is from Palestine, West Virginia, in Wirt County. Wirt County residents are resilient people who epitomize the can-do spirit of West Virginia, and it was their prayers that brought Jessie home. All of us West Virginians and every American across the Nation can feel the Lynch family's relief now that their daughter is in safe hands. I stand here today wearing my yellow ribbon because we are waiting for other Americans to come home. We are joyful, thankful, grateful as we see the miraculous rescue of Jessie Lynch.”
