 Capt. Bruce Clark, 43, was Skyping with his wife from Tarin Kowt Afghanistan, about 85 miles north of Kandahar, April 30, during one of their scheduled calls when he pitched forward unresponsive. By all accounts he was a good guy, a solid soldier, and will be sorely missed by his command and his family. "The closet behind him had a bullet hole in it. In a statement released by the family, Susan describes what she witnessed in the moments leading up to her husband's death, and in the two hours their Skype chat remained running. The other individuals, including a member of the military, who rushed to the home of CPT Clark’s wife also saw the hole and agreed it was a bullet hole.” 
 
 “After two hours and many frantic phone calls by Mrs. Clark, two military personnel arrived in the room and appeared to check his pulse, but provided no details about his condition to his wife,” the statement said. Susan says she released the information to “to honor my husband and dispel the inaccurate information and supposition promulgated by other parties.” 
 
 The military says it took so long for help to arrive because Susan's calls were routed through several stateside commands before reaching Afghanistan. He joined the Army in 2006 and was stationed in Hawaii before he was assigned to the medical center in El Paso. This story emerged last week as a sad, yet unusual death of a U.S. soldier deployed to Afghanistan. Clark's body was returned Thursday to Dover Air Force Base. He is survived by his wife and two daughters, aged 3 and 9.
– The sad and strange tale of the US Army captain who died while Skyping with his wife gets even more mysterious: Army investigators say they found no bullet wound or any evidence of foul play in Bruce Kevin Clark’s death, but wife Susan Orellana-Clark has suggested her husband may have been shot. "Clark was suddenly knocked forward," reads a family statement released yesterday. "The closet behind him had a bullet hole in it.” Others, “including a member of the military, who rushed to the home of Clark's wife, also saw the hole and agreed it was a bullet hole." Orellana-Clark says her husband showed no signs of alarm or discomfort before falling forward onto his desk during their Skype chat, which she kept open for two hours as she tried to get assistance for Clark, 43, who was at his base in Afghanistan. "We can positively say that Captain Clark was not shot," says an Army spokesperson, adding that there was no trauma on the body other than a possibly broken nose from when Clark hit the desk, the AP reports. The Army is waiting on complete autopsy results, but has ruled the death from natural causes, Business Insider adds—but speculation is rampant on Twitter, with some wondering if Clark was killed by a sniper.
