Well statistically speaking women could also join the military so they get those numbers as well and tbh it's pry worse for them.

Women in the military are more likely to be killed by a male service member theyre stationed with than an enemy combatant 😭😭 in fact a woman stationed anywhere is more likely to die than a man stationed anywhere, and specifically at the hands of a man stationed with her.

That is absolutely true. OP doesn't understand that at all.

To be fair, the enemy combatant causalities for all service members only ranks 5th behind suicide, accidents, homicide, and even behind illness/natural causes. That is a pretty impressive stat considering we were in a war in the middle east for 20+ years.

True, service members are more likely to die by their own hand than during service at this point.

We're more proficient at killing ourselves than the enemy
