How many people (on average) die every year from heat stroke at Fort Jackson?
Plenty of people on here will say its normal for people in the military to drop dead. They drop dead all the time.
You know a few Army folks huh?
I had an Aunt that is now my Uncle. I’ll keep track of that…and keep you posted.
Promise.
The military is more than a little careful with training on high temperature/high humidity days; when it reaches a certain point the "black flag" goes up and training stops (dead in its tracks).
I just looked. 2-3 deaths a year in ALL army bases per year. Hes pulling crap out of his butt
If temps got in the 90’s at the boot camp I went to. We went straight to the barracks. No drilling.
Absolutely. Had a LOT of pre-dawn PT because the black flag would go up as the day got hotter and had a lot of PT after sundown for the same reason.
Not that rare. happens to football recruits every summer Happens to the military as well. Not all survive heat stroke. It has to be recognized quickly and treated promptly. The point is no one knows why this young lady died from just reading the article. If it makes you feel better to blame it on a vaccination go ahead. There is no way to know without seeing her records and post.
We had two deaths on base in four years; one suicide by someone there TDY and one alcohol-involved single vehicle crash.

If there is a requisite atonement for all the suffering we cause in this life, I calculate that Fauci will spend eternity atoning for the millions of lives he destroyed in both death and financial ruin.
He is truly an evil little Smurf.
I truly despise that smug little twerp.
Maybe if she spent her time learning to type or cook she’d still be alive today.
You're right that we won't know but we won't see her records, nor will we see the truth from the same government that's covering up it's own crimes.
There is no such thing as "Sudden Adult Death Syndrome" - it's a cover name for "We don't know and aren't going to look any deeper" or "We do know and are not going to tell the truth".
There’s a kid over 5 years old in America that doesn’t know how to type?
some companies that made people quick if they didn’t get vaxxed are now suing.
Could the military that were dismisssed do the same?
I recall football players dying of heat exhaustion in the late summer since I was a kid (I’m 74 yrs old). I assume the army training is of similar intensity?
Is your aunt/uncle combo vaccinated? May need two.

Normal
Not in the heat it's not. The military wised up to the risks and would set "black flag" conditions when no training was authorized. The only exceptions would be indoors in air conditioning.
As for football players you may remember, ignorant coaches back then would berate players for being weak and needing to hydrate. The University of Florida (Gators) College of Medicine did a lot to change that by developing "Gatorade", leading the Gators to their first Orange Bowl win and the rest is history.
Ok, then Shorthand.
