Combat & Non-Combat Deaths in Iraq This Week

A BUZZFLASH READER COMMENTARY

Dear Buzz:

Five Day Mortality Report from Central Command:

COMBAT RELATED DEATHS & INJURIES:
Aug. 27--"One killed, two wounded (Baghdad)": [LINK]
Aug. 27--"One killed, three wounded (Fallujah): [LINK]
Aug. 26--"One killed, three wounded (Hamariyah): [LINK]

NON-COMBAT DEATHS:
Aug. 28--Undetermined causes ("pneumonia?"): [LINK]
Aug. 26-- Non-hostile gunshot wound (murder? suicide? accident?): [LINK]
Aug. 26--Traffic accident: [LINK]
Aug. 24--Drowning: [LINK]
Aug. 24--Non-hostile gunshot wound: [LINK]

3 dead, 8 wounded in combat
5 dead, accidental, undetermined
8 dead, 8 wounded total

Non-combat related dead exceed combat deaths this week. How can we learn the details of the non-combat deaths attributed to "undetermined causes" that are "under investigation?". Will those results be posted anywhere, ever?
