should die from their injuries will they be counted? or even reported?

I can't recall hearing a single story about a soldier expiring from injuries if they died days or weeks later.

Edit: typo

1. Good point. The media considers them dying from their injuries
not combat. If those who are supposed to guard the public from governent are in league with government what chance does the nation have? Wait until the Democrats get the Presidency and or majority congress then suddenly the media will suddenly recover from their stupidity and complicity with corruption and point out every little facit and error (even if they have to make it up) of the Democrats.

3. NPR actually reported a "death from previous injury" this morning.
NPR actually reported a "death from previous injury" this morning.
It startled me to hear this.

Of course, it happened "in country" and not in Germany, America, or any
other spot they're shipping our wounded soldiers to keep them out of
the press.

4. But will "death from previous injury" be counted?
Are they counting the suicides which are an expected outcome from keeping people in a war zone for too long?

Two rhetorical questions in a row.
