Ex-POW Lynch aims to teach kindergarten
0 Comments | Deseret News (Salt Lake City), Mar 21, 2005
Former POW Jessica Lynch plans to pursue her dream of becoming a kindergarten teacher.
The 21-year-old Army supply clerk, whose wounding and rescue made her one of the Iraq war's most famous soldiers, said Friday that she plans to start online courses at West Virginia University this fall.
Former Gov. Bob Wise had promised Lynch the state would finance her education at any West Virginia public college or university.
In 2003, her 507th Army Maintenance Company convoy took a wrong turn in the Iraqi town of Nasiriyah and was attacked. Eleven American soldiers were killed, and six, including Lynch, were captured.
