             By no means is this a complete list.  Such deaths are continuing to occur with no clear indication that the military leadership will limit the availability of antipsychotics, antidepressants or prescription “polypharmacy” which can never be scientific, safe or effective.  I continue to find ‘new’ deaths every time I have a spare hour or two to begin Googling again.

 

             I call to the readers attention the posting of Leland Tyrone which the editor of The Gazette tells us was altered at the military’s request.  How common or routine are such alterations.  How many of these probable SCDs have been called “suicides”?  How many accidental or other multiple drug toxicities or overdoses when they are none of these things?

 

             There can be no rational or scientific change of psychiatric drug policy in the US military until such time as there has been a full acknowledgement and explanation of these and all similar deaths in the military.  See the CCHR documentary THE HIDDEN ENEMY about psychiatric drugging in the military and you will understand why the pertinent question is “Which soldier in the military is not on psychiatric drugs?”

 

While I am considering and listing only US soldiers, I am seeing substantial numbers of British and Australian soldiers as well dying probable sudden cardiac deaths.  Such troops may well be under US command and may be taking like amounts of psychotropic drugs, perhaps leading to increased numbers of sudden deaths (perhaps cardiac, perhaps due to psychotropic drugs). I will try to hook up with Brit and Canadian allies and seek to interest them in scrutinizing this.  It is to be recalled how rare such deaths were in the Vietnam was. (Eckhart)

Impression: with what I know, sounds clinically like a sudden cardiac death with enlarged heart and cardiac pathology likely the  main causal factor. Methadone doe somewhat prolong the qt interval but at these doses probably not  much and it is not much of a risk factor for Torsades de pointes arrhythmia and SCD.  Will comment further when I have received more info.  Has he had irregulaar  pulse, shortness of breath with eertion, ankle fot swelling chest pain tith exertionn. This odes not sound much   like   cns depressant coma ever deeper with gradu al respiratory failure leading to death by that mechanism. Prob scd (apparently not on anything but methadone).

"That's all they told me -- or told my wife."

"No, not that he ever told us. I don't know, I don't know what happened."The family says Hernandez joined the Marines late last year, and served with the Third Marine Fourth Regiment. His group was set to go to Iraq later this year, but the family didn't know exactly when.The young Marine had already earned a number of awards. The "Paul Ison" honor was awarded to Hernandez after his fellow Marines picked him for his leadership skills.The father says Hernandez joined the Marines to serve, and with an eye on his future. "He wanted to do that and when he got done, he would come home and be a sheriff's deputy."The family says Hernandez was in boot camp in San Diego, spent time at Camp Pendelton, and was then stationed at 29 Palms. That's where he was found in his barracks Monday at about 1:00 a.m.Relatives say the young Marine was out-going and friendly -- and always thinking of others. The heart-broken father says there's so much he'll miss about his son."I love him and he'll always be in my heart and in my prayers," says Hernandez. "We'll see each other some day."

He returned from his second deployment to Iraq complaining of back pain, insomnia, anxiety and nightmares. Doctors diagnosed post-traumatic stress disorder and prescribed powerful cocktails of psychiatric drugs and narcotics. Yet his pain only deepened, as did his depression. “I have almost given up hope,” he told a doctor in 2008, medical records show. “I should have died in Iraq.” Airman Mena died instead in his Albuquerque apartment, on July 21, 2009, five months after leaving the Air Force on a medical discharge. A toxicologist found eight prescription medications in his blood, including three antidepressants, a sedative, a sleeping pill and two potent painkillers. Yet his death was no suicide, the medical examiner concluded. What killed Airman Mena was not an overdose of any one drug, but the interaction of many. He was 23. PROB

Instead she was given four new medicines, including morphine. On May 3, three days after Ort was prescribed the potent new batch of painkillers, her bunk mates heard her moaning in her sleep at dawn. At 7:10 a.m. she was found unconscious on her cot. Ort, a 24-year-old soldier with a 16-month-old son, was pronounced dead an hour later. A coroner's report concluded an "accidental overdose of prescription medications" caused her death. The night before she died, she had talked to her mother, according to the San Bernardino County sheriff coroner's investigation. Vickey Ort told the coroner's investigator that her daughter did not sound like herself, that she was "drugged up" and slurring her words, and that her daughter admitted she was "out of it" because of her new medicines. The coroner's report noted that three days before her death Ort had been prescribed three painkillers — morphine sulfate, gabapentin and hydrocodone — and a muscle relaxant marketed as Flexeril.

Jacob Chadwick prepared to leave the San Diego hospital Aug. 11, hundreds of police cars and motorcycles escorted 2nd Lt. Patrick Wayland's casket through his hometown of Midland, Texas, where thousands lined the streets waving American flags."Patrick took an oath to serve his country. Few people are able to do that," said Wayland's friend, 2nd Lt. John Silvestro. "Patrick, he would consider himself lucky to serve not only his country, but his fellow Marine."Staff at the University of California-San Diego Medical Center said they were surprised by the extra effort one family put in to help a stranger."I've been doing this for 20 years and have never seen anything like it," said David Lewino, a transplant coordinator. "That whole sense of Marine family — you hear about it, but when you see it firsthand, you really believe it."By having a kidney designated to him, Chadwick was able to get off the waiting list.In October, Chadwick had an appointment to get his kidneys checked after experiencing severe headaches and dizzy spells. But that was the day his daughter, Ella Marie, was born. Chadwick put off going to the doctor, trying to enjoy his time with Ella.On Aug. 1, Wayland suffered cardiac arrest during a swimming exercise at Naval Air Station Pensacola in Florida. The 24-year-old Marine, the one friends called "Superman," would spend the next week in the hospital, his brain swelling. His family waited for a miracle. Doctors pronounced Wayland brain-dead Aug. 5."I know we have a long and hard road in front of us," his father, David Wayland, wrote in an online journal after he learned of his son's condition. "But carry Patrick in your heart, and take comfort in knowing that he is leading God's Army in Heaven now."
