Kevlar helmets and flak jackets. There were gunshot wounds in areas (forehead and torso) that would have been protected by those things in combat.

I would have to watch it again, but assuming you are right, it could be accounted for by these people not wearing protective gear that they should have had on. Helmets can fall off. Many things could account for it. I am not saying it didn't happen, I would just like to hear it from an official source.

It appeared that several were wounded, then field dressed (emergency bandaged, flak jackets removed to get to the wounds.

Then pulled from their capture site around/below the ruck into the building where the most severely wounded were shot (executed) by bullets in the forehead. (Look at the pools and streams of blood under and behind them, but their combat wounds were already wrapped and weren't bleeding.)

Unwounded were likely taken off as POWS, then tortured there at the "hospital. (Multiple broken arms/legs of Jessica are typical of torture and rape, particularly since there were so stab or gunshot wounds. In a fire fight with hand weapons, how are three limbs going to be broken on a person who can fire and fight, and yet that person does not have any puncture wounds?)
