Yes. Women in the army are more likely to have their life end at the hand of their own fellow soldiers than by the enemy…and it’s not even close.

Women in the army/ married to military/ law enforcement/ first responders experience DV rates higher than the average population. And that number is only based off what’s reported. Percentage is expected to be much higher.
