Answer 4

there is no way to tell. if it happens in this situation it gets counted, if it happens in that situtation it does not get counted. its all lies. for example, if a soldier dies on the plane or helicopter, he isn't listed as dying because it didn't happen on the battlefield. i don't believe a word bush says, and i voted for him twice. i am so so so sorry.
