I have a friend that I grew up with who just left for Iraq today for a 7month tour over there. I don’t want a political debate or anything, just stats. I’m really concerned for his safety over there and what his family is dealing with right now.

      Statisically, It’s pretty good that he will come back in one piece.

      If you look at the number of total deaths (accidental and War related) the deaths per 100,000 are around 120.

      Compare this to the early 70s to 80s when the ratio was around 100 to 105 when it was only accidents.

      Iraq over the last years we cant forget that each casualty rate that is not substantially higher than what they are being blow out of course you would probably feel otherwise if we have lost 58000 lives in iraq over that same timespan that is far.
      The military is risky job being in iraq over the daily casualty reports.
