"Since the U.S. went to war in Afghanistan in 2001 and Iraq in 2003, about 2.5 million members of the Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard and related Reserve and National Guard units have been deployed in the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, according to Department of Defense data. Of those, more than a third were deployed more than once."

I hear crickets.......

Duck, you quote tweets like they are fact. Are you saying over a third of all deployed were casualties?

Injured not casualties.

So you are saying anyone treated at the VA SINCE RETURNING is a war casualty? Are the vets from Korea going to the VA added to the total from that war?

Wow. That's more people overall than I would have guessed.

 

[millerbleach]

That article doesn't say that number was from combat related problems. It simply states there have been that many visits to the VA. Combat casualties and visits to the VA are different things.

 

[Duck_walk]

Miller. 2.5 million Americans served.
A bunch were hurt physically, emotionally,
mentally and we're treated by the VA.
What is so hard to understand?

 

[millerbleach]

I have no qualms with that statement. You didn't say over a third of all who served were injured or killed though.
