SEATTLE, May 28 — A U.S. soldier first listed as killed in action while riding in the same convoy as Jessica Lynch last year was actually captured by Iraqi fighters and then shot to death with two bullets to the back, military officials said on Friday.
The story of Oregon National Guard Sgt. Donald Walters came out after his mother, Arlene Walters, filed for the Army to disclose more information surrounding the ambush of the 507th Army Maintenance Company on March 23, 2003, near the Iraqi town of Nasiriyah.
Mrs. Walters, appearing on local television, said that she wanted to find out whether her son had fought heroically until his ammunition had run out, actions first attributed to Lynch.
Lynch, after being rescued last year, came out publicly to say that many of the actions attributed to her by news media were false, since she was injured when her Humvee crashed during the firefight.
Captain Michael Braibish, deputy public affairs officer for Oregon National Guard, said that the Army had initially believed Walters, then 33, was killed in action, but that an investigation ''revealed he was indeed captured while alive.''
''He was later taken to a building where he was shot twice in the back and then turned over to an ambulance driver, who then took him to Saddam Hospital,'' Braibish said.
