> total deaths per military FTE is often in the 1/1000 rate each year This might derail the thread but I'm genuinely curious to know: if I joined the US military during wartime, what's the statistical chance that I would suffer a non-fatal but still life-changing injury? And what's the chance that I would survive combat with such a severe case of PTSD that it drivese to suicide? (On the latter point, I've read that significantly more American servicemen have killed themselves after returning from Iraq and Afghanistan than were actually killed while serving in those countries.)
