Saving Jessica Lynch

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Saving Jessica Lynch is a made-for-tv movie that aired on NBC on Sunday, 9 November 2003, featuring Canadian actress Laura Regan in the title role. The movie begins with the ambush of Jessica Lynch's convoy in the middle of an Iraqi city and follows a version of events that credits an Iraqi citizen, Mohammed Odeh al Rehaief, with being responsible for helping to arrange a daring rescue by US special forces.

Although the movie was based on a true story, many of the circumstances of the rescue have been challenged by the media [1] as well as by Lynch herself.
