SOLDIERS/VETERANS DEAD OF PROBABLE SUDDEN CARDIAC DEATH (PROB SCD) LIST CONTAINING 400 as of 5 9 14, 405 as of 7 15 14; 407 as of 9/11/14 “soldier unresponsive, “soldier found dead,” [start with 31] (supersedes all previous lists) © Fred A. Baughman Jr., MD (copy-right) (may duplicate with attribution) 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) 1.

He was found dead in his on-base quarters in North Carolina nearly three days later.According to the autopsy report, Bachus had in his system two antidepressants, the opiates oxymorphone and oxycodone, and Ativan for anxiety.
