As I recall, she wound up being awarded a Silver Star, the first female to be awarded the Silver Star since something like World War II.

For the first time since World War II, an Army woman was awarded the Silver Star for valor June 16 in Iraq. Sgt. Leigh Ann Hester of the 617th Military Police Company, a National Guard unit out of Richmond, Kentucky, received the Silver Star, along with two other members of her unit, for their actions during an enemy ambush on their convoy.
