Eleven U.S. Army soldiers have been found dead on and off U.S. military base Fort Hood
in Texas under "mysterious circumstances."
While working to determine how nearly a dozen young and healthy men were suddenly dropping
dead, investigators found one chilling thing between them that they all had in common,
showing this likely wasn't a coincidence at all.
Over the past three months, police in Fort Hood have been overwhelmed with an unusual
number of death investigations, all of whom have been Fort Hood soldiers who are dropping
at an alarming rate.
The most recent victim was 23-year-old Sgt.
Alex Taylor of Texas City, Texas, who was found unresponsive while working Wednesday
on the base.
Now, the Army's Criminal Investigations Command is taking a closer look at Taylor's
death, Stars and Stripes reported Friday.
"At this point in the investigative process we do not suspect foul play, but have not
completely ruled it out while we conduct a complete and thorough death investigation,"
Criminal Investigations spokesman Christopher Grey said.
This response comes after a series of mysterious deaths started piling up, the first one occurring
on October 12 and haven't stopped since.
Another soldier was found unresponsive at work in that same month, and each month since,
all being discovered in the same strange manner, all of which were healthy one day and dead
the next.
However, the next three deaths all shared something else in common that make their fatalities
different than the first ones.
24-year-old Pvt.
Kevin Paulino from Fort Hood died from a gunshot wound while he was off base as the first of
three to have been killed in the same way, according to Stars and Stripes.
Their deaths are also under investigation by the Army since answers into what happened
was not immediately clear.
Pvt.
Dakota Lee Stump, 19, was another of the long line of fatalities who was finally found almost
a month after going missing on October 10 when he was declared as having gone AWOL.
However, his body was found Nov. 3 next to his flipped vehicle by soldiers conducting
land navigation training just 100 yards from the road, an Army release stated.
Three other soldiers all from Fort Hood died on November 12 in a suicide bomb attack at
Bagram air base in Afghanistan: Staff Sgt.
John Perry, 30; Private First Class Tyler Iubelt, 20; and Sgt. 1st Class Allan Brown,
46, the Houston Chronicle reported.
There have never been so many deaths in one time among soldiers all from the same base.
What's even more odd is that the mysterious fatalities happen in threes under the same
circumstances.
There definitely seems to be something intentional about the commonality of them all being from
Fort Hood since the pattern that's now evident can't just be a coincidence.
Military bases across the United States have been on high alert for months after a series
of security breaches and incidents have occurred.
Now, we're getting word of injured Special Operations Soldiers who have been rushed to
local hospitals after what happened on base where these heroes thought they were safe.
A massive explosion on base at Fort Bragg in North Carolina has injured at least eight
special operations soldiers today.
This comes just weeks after 15 Marines were injured during transport when their transport
plane crashed into a Mississippi field and 3 Marines were killed in a crash off Australia's
eastern coast this summer, according to UPROXX.
Authorities are trying to determine how this could have happened today at Fort Bragg and
have already discovered some unfortunate answers.
This isn't the first incident to happening the last several months on a U.S. military
base, and probably won't be the last.
However, the outcome is the most detrimental this year.
The Daily Caller broke the tragic news and details of this event today which unexpectedly
injured these Special Operations soldiers.
Eight soldiers were injured during a training exercise at the U.S. Army base at Fort Bragg,
North Carolina, on Thursday, the military said in a statement.
The soldiers hurt during U.S. Army Special Operations Command demolitions training were
taken by air and ground to multiple local hospitals, the statement said.
The extent of their injuries and cause of the incident were not released.
Lieutenant Colonel Rob Bockholt, a base spokesman, said he could not confirm local media reports
of an explosion occurring during the exercise.
"What exactly happened is under investigation," he said.
On Wednesday, 15 Marines were injured when an amphibious assault vehicle caught fire
during training at Camp Pendleton in California, the Marine Corps said.
The conditions of the injured soldiers were not immediately made public and have yet to
be determined.
The Gateway Pundit reports that several were transported via emergency medical helicopter
to the Womack Army Medical Center.
What specifically caused the blast is still under investigation.
"There are injuries but we don't know the extent," Special Ops Command Lt Col
Rob Bockholt said, according to Fox News.
"The incident at Fort Bragg comes just a day after a vehicle fire at Camp Pendleton
in California left 15 Marines injured — eight of them in the burn unit — following a training
exercise accident," Fox News pointed out.
The theory goes that "one accident is bad luck; two is a coincidence; three is enemy
action."
Today's incident marks the second within just a couple of days, but could actually
be the third, in a series of horrific events on bases.
We previously reported of what could now be considered the first of this trifecta of tragic
occurrences, which ended much differently than these most recent cases.
Naval Station Norfolk, in Virgina, went on high alert after what was discovered under
water just outside the secured piers that surround it.
Just like air space around U.S. fighter jets, naval stations are surrounded by a defined
barrier of protection.
That was breached today with who was able to get dangerously close and why.
The naval station is guarded by sailors who work watch in shifts for anything or anyone
who may pose a threat.
This particular base contains 60 war ships, "including the fleet's newest and most
technologically advanced aircraft carrier, the USS Gerald R. Ford," the Associated
Press reports.
This carrier had recently returned to the pier following a successful test of new equipment
that launches and lands jet fighters.
There are a lot of adversaries who could try to infiltrate our military in a mode of attack,
which is why it's important to have sailors monitoring the base and its 14 piers at all
times.
Today, the spotted something amiss in the water which had encroached upon a no-go zone
for anyone who is not authorized.
The Washington Post reports:
Officials say a scuba diver appears to have breached a barrier at the country's largest
naval base and they have stepped up security as a result.
Navy spokeswoman Kelly Wirfel said several sailors on watch at Naval Station Norfolk
in Virginia briefly saw the person Monday in the water near the secured piers.
A security gate sits in the water surrounding the base and its 14 piers.
Wirfel says security teams are looking for the person while restricting access to and
from the piers.
Adding to the cause for concern was that Wirfel said, "It was not a Navy diver, and they
also confirmed that there were no divers in the water for maintenance."
Now we have three very alarming events which have occurred on U.S. military bases within
the last couple of months.
This could be a coincidence or perhaps something more deliberate.
Regardless of the cause, our American heroes need to stay vigilant and on high alert even
when on base after what we've seen in the last couple of years, that these secured places
are susceptible to attack.
