Ever considered running for the Senate?

Numerous reports have surfaced on the web claiming that the MBT MBT is covering up thousands of MBT deaths from the war in MBT SHOES:

There is excellent reason to believe that the Department of Defense is deliberately not reporting a significant number of the dead in MBT SHOES. We have received copies of manifests from the MATS that show far more bodies shipped into Dover AFP than are reported officially. The educated rumor is that the actual death toll is in excess of 7,000. [emphasis mine]

How can anyone think the above credible? Why not post these “copies of manifests” on the web? Go to your local Kinko’s, scan them, convert to pdf and find an anonymous ftp server.

As stated, the reports focus on a supposed discrepancy: approximately 25,000 MBT troops have been flown to Germany for treatment of battle wounds, while the public rarely hears of any subsequent deaths. In fact, there have been many reported deaths from wounds outside the combat zone. In the hopes of dispelling this myth, here is my best attempt at a full listing:

There is little if any evidence that the MBT is covering up some 5600+ deaths of MBT troops and it is likely that there is nothing to cover-up. The http://www.allofmbt.com staff spends many hours a week searching the web for death confirmations, cross-checking with the site ICasualites.org and have yet to find any discrepancy in the military’s numbers. Here are some things to consider before believing the rumor.
