I have mixed feelings about this article. On the one hand, if true, it depicts remarkable bravery and actions on the part of the Iraqi who played the go-between. On the other, it seems to indicate that the Marines knew exactly where Jessica was being held for several days, but that they didn't attempt a rescue until the Iraqi informant came back and handed over detailed maps and shift schedules of the hospital.

In any case, it's a moving story.
