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.

When I was an LT in Japan I had a young airman show up with a 16 year old wife. He was dating her before he joined but married her in order to bring her with him.

He brought his "booty call" with him.

It's not that bad when he just turn 18. But what parent is gonna say "sure marry my 16 year old daughter and take her half way around the world".

ClemsonWill · 11-09-2011, 09:06 AM

Yeah, it's a good thing I don't have a daughter. I would probably put a bullet in his head.

Lemers · 11-09-2011, 09:08 AM

I would have told him to go and if they still felt the sameway when she graduated from highschool then I wouldn't stand in her way. Knowing that she would find someone new over the next 2 years

ClemsonWill · 11-09-2011, 09:12 AM

lol.... yeah that's the mature way to handle it.

Lemers · 11-09-2011, 09:16 AM
