I got the word wrong....it is avulsed

None of the above distinguishing characteristics of Pat’s body were recorded, and his height was incorrectly listed as 6’. His wedding band was described as gold, when in fact it was platinum. And there was the bizarre claim that he had been defibrillated… a man whose entire cranial contents had been avulsed (much of his brain was collected for recovery on the scene in an ammunition box). There were also subsequent claims that CPR had been performed on Pat at the field hospital; also preposterous, given that there was no intact bony structure on the back of his head to support the head for ventilation had anyone been inclined to make such a patently vain attempt on a man who was obviously dead. By the time Pat Tillman arrived at the hospital, he was cold, and the first signs of rigor mortis would have already been emerging.


The article has all sorts of tidbits....it was written by a military expert. I think he is a Ranger, as well.
