There's also that "small" issue of combat stress, PTSD etc. Folks suffering from that tend to have higher rates of domestic violence (and violence in general) as well.
yeah, it's a rate, not raw numbers. Raw numbers they blow the other branches out of the water.


Another thing that helps (hurts) those stats is the benefits provided to married guys...encourages people to jump into (and stay in) bad marriages.
