First, we want to bring you up to date on some of the latest developments on the ground in Iraq. Within the last hour, U.S. Central Command announced the successful rescue of a soldier missing in action in Iraq.

It was 19-year-old Private First Class Jessica Lynch who, as we mentioned, had been designated as missing for more than a week after an ambush near Nasiriya. According to her family she is now in a coalition hospital.

And, early Wednesday Iraqi time, U.S. Marines battling for Nasiriya switched tactics, no longer just responding to ambushes, the 15th Artillery went on the offensive to root out paramilitary units loyal to Baghdad targeting the headquarters there of Saddam's party and calling in new air strikes.

I remember this day because I was at our plant in Mexico and all the news stations I could get there portrayed Nasiriya as a second Chosin Reservoir. Then I got to the airport in Monterrey and all the TV on there were showing the good news. An amazing turn of events!

Sure hope she is doing well and not tormented by the Press.
