PressTV or some place like that was tweeting a headline that we've had more troops killed by suicide than in action. I don't know the details or if it is true, but sometimes it sure seems that way.

In before the other hypotheticals...

Tying up loose ends or maybe a result of some gladiator games? I find this difficult to believe.


One thing the government has a track record of doing is, ridding the system of those that know too much about all the illegal actions of TPTB.

BOOM!!! dang rpf's you are letting me down, I thought this would be at least the first or second comment. And I agree. I read this article earlier and was thinking how a lot of SEALS have been dying after that Osama "takedown".

Interesting, just know the typical Patton information really never done major research on the guy. Got any starts where I can do some digging?

More U.S. soldiers have killed themselves than died in the war.
