I don’t think hospitals can release any info other than if he is there or not.

Exactly,, unless the patient gives permission to the hospital. And I am not clear on whether this "fractured skull" report came from the hospital. News reports I have seen have not said specifically that this report is from a hospital spokesperson. And that's why I must wonder if this is a diagnosis from one of his lefty buddies that has been reported by the lazy MSM as fact.

From Reuters report:

The hospital has confirmed Olsen was hurt during the protest, but could not say how he was wounded.

And:

Keith Shannon, 24, who said he served with Olsen in Iraq, told Reuters his friend suffered a two-inch skull fracture.

Lastly:

Olsen served two tours in Iraq from 2006 to 2010 with the 3rd battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, Shannon said, adding that he and Olsen deployed together and were assigned to a tactical communications unit.

2006 to 2010. That's some mighty long tours.
