09 April 2003: "Where, for that matter, is Salam?"

Jeff Jarvis is spot on; with Baghdad more or less fallen, somebody needs to find "Salam Pax" and make sure he's all right. Whoever he really is, he deserves his place in the annals of history (next to, among others, PFC Jessica Lynch and CPT Chris Carter) and personally, I'm hoping he made it through for the enshrining ceremony. Blogger history in the making.

Speaking of CPT Carter, CO A/3-78th Infantry, I'd rather he was remembered less for this "I do believe this city is freakin' ours" statement and more for pulling that Iraqi woman off that bridge at Hindiyah.
