FORT BRAGG, N.C. - The Army says a Special Forces trainee found dead this summer during a land navigation exercise in North Carolina was bitten by a poisonous water moccasin, also known as a cottonmouth.The military said Wednesday the autopsy of 20-year-old Pfc. Norman M. Murburg of Dade City, Fla., ruled out heat or dehydration as a cause of death. Murburg was bitten multiple times while training at the Hoffman training area, near Fort Bragg's Camp Mackall.
Well, it's good to have resolution; it was a Giant Meteor Impact - my phrase for an unavoidable event. The only protection is to be someplace else when one of those strikes.
