Is it possible that not a single "wounded" GI has died from the wounds?

[Toots]

It is reported that nearly seventeen hundred GIs have been killed in action but I have not heard of a single wounded dying from their wounds. If per chance one did die somehow would that death not be counted as a Combat death? Is there a listing of deaths in the military for the year 2004? All deaths not just Combat deaths. I am sure it would be an eye opener. I think America should be made aware of just how many soldiers die every year. Maybe the military would not be so appealing to some of our youth.

1. If they die afterwards they aren't counted, I beleive

There was a minor uproar last year when some claimed dying soldiers were "retired" on the spot, thereby knocking down the actual KIA numbers. This was not actually due to bad intentions, supposedly, because a retired soldier's family would get more and better benefits than one KIA.

I don't know anymore than that, but I do know that if you die a week, a month, a year later of wounds sustained in combat, you are still not considered KIA.

Gotta keep them numbers down, Clyde.

[Warpy]

7. They're only counted as killed in action

if they're DOA or DRT (dead right there). If they survive hours, days or weeks after they arrive at the hospital but succumb to their wounds later, they are simply counted as wounded.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Enronned statistics and faith based war.

[alcibiades_mystery]

8. Bzzzzzzt...WRONG

The following troops, counted within the 1697, died in Bethesda Naval Hospital after being wounded in Iraq:

Randy D. Collins, died 5/24/05

http://www.defenselink.mil/releases/2005/nr20050527-336...

Nicholas S. Nolte, died 11/24/04

http://www.defenselink.mil/releases/2004/nr20041129-168...

Benjamin C. Edinger, died 11/23/04

http://www.defenselink.mil/releases/2004/nr20041127-166...

Michael Downey, died 11/9/04

http://www.defenselink.mil/releases/2004/nr20041122-162... (this link also includes other Marines who died in Landstuhl)

Jason L. Dunham, died 4/22/04

http://www.defenselink.mil/releases/2004/nr20040426-066...

----------------

I could list dozens more, all included in the 1697, who died of wounds in hospitals in Germany and the US. They ARE counted in the 1697 dead officially acknowledged. You simply have incorrect information leading to an incorrect belief.

[Patty Diana]

12. Why did Landstuhl just EXPAND it's morgue

that link is now missing. Those doctors say the dealth tollis way higher than the Pentagon is admitting. Wait I forgot, the Pentagon doesn't count the non US citizen Troops kill in Iraq

[alcibiades_mystery]

14. Bullshit

The Pentagon does not list the country of origin of non-US citizen troops killed in Iraq, but it most certainly counts them.

I hope you aren't getting this from the laughably unsourced Jubran "article" from AxisofLogic.

Since you didn't provide any source for your incorrect assertions, there's no need to debunk it. Try evidence once in a while. You'd be amazed at the results...

[acmejack]

2. NO, it's not!

There are claims of thousands of deaths occurring in Landstuhl, Germany where the wounded are medevaced to. They are not counted as they did not die in Iraq. There is argument about how they can cover this up, but I put nothing past these people.

[SouthernDem2004]

3. Yes they do and yes they are counted.

Been numerous threads on this topic around here somewhere if you are interested. Combat deaths include the wounded that die later. The totals are revised. They even count suicides.

[Frederik]

4. Wrong wrong wrong

Killed In Action is at 1300 something. The near 1700 is ALL deaths - included those who die from their wounds in Germany. This is discussed here a couple of times per week, for some reason.

The real hidden casualties of this war are the thousands of young men and women who come home disabled for life and/or with serious brain damage because modern field medicine can treat very serious injuries that would have caused death in Vietnam. That's why the number of deaths isn't higher, but the number of gravely wounded and disabled is very high.

[alcibiades_mystery]

10. No, those who die from wounds incurred in hostile action

are counted as KIA.

Only those who die in "non-hostile" accidents or by illness are NOT counted as KIA, though they ARE counted in the official death toll for the theater.

[Frederik]

13. Ah, I stand corrected

Thank you.

5. LynnTheDem works with the team updating the ICCC.

Do a DU search on threads created by her in the last 30 days & you'll come across her methodology. I believe the numbers posted on http://icasualties.org/oif/ are complete and correct.

[NewJeffCT]

6. From what I've heard, about 1 in 8 die of their wounds later on

Which is actually significantly better than Vietnam, where it was 1 in 4.

[alcibiades_mystery]

9. The military does count those who die of wounds later, and many have

Go to www.icasualties.org

Click on "Fatality Details."

At the bottom of the page, scroll down the filter for "Place of Death" and you'll find many counted in the 1700 who died in hospital in Germany or stateside.

You simply have wrong information.

11. Many of the 1700 have "died from wounds"

06/10/05 DoD Identifies Army Casualties

Capt. Phillip T. Esposito, 30, of Suffern, N.Y. and 1st Lt. Louis E. Allen, 34, of Milford, Pa. died on June 8 in Tikrit of injuries sustained on June 7 in Tikrit, Iraq, when an explosion of unknown origin occurred near their location.

If wounded troops make it out of Iraq at all, then they're likely to live.

15. This massive debunking of the "no died of wounds counted" claim

will mean nothing to the unreasonable kooks who continue to spew it, almost daily now. They do not rely on evidence, but on nebulous "suspicions" which must be right! They must! They must! Evidence be damned.

Thank you for icasualties.org and all the work you do. Pay no attention to these dimwits.

I'm staying out for now (I think).

I find it it hard to believe that the Government would lie to us.

18. This 'If they die later they aren't counted' theory is incorrect.

I have seen dozens of DoD fatality reports on soldiers who had been wounded days or weeks earlier. In other words, your first sentence is flat wrong.
