Featured Speaker: Jessica Dawn Lynch.

Jessica Dawn Lynch (born April 26, 1983), is an American teacher, actress, and former United States Army soldier who served in the 2003 invasion of Iraq as a Private First Class.

On March 23, 2003, she was serving as a unit supply specialist with the 507th Maintenance Company when Iraqi troops ambushed her convoy during the Battle of Nasiriyah; Lynch was seriously injured during the offensive and captured by Iraqi soldiers shortly afterward. Her subsequent recovery by U.S. special operations forces on April 1, 2003, received considerable media coverage as it was the first successful rescue of an American prisoner of war since World War II and the first ever of a woman.
