More than one out of four soldiers who committed suicide did so while serving in Iraq or Afghanistan, according to a report scheduled to be released Thursday. Iraq was the most common deployment location for US soldiers who either attempted suicide or committed suicide.
It also found a significant relationship between suicide attempts and the number of days deployed in Iraq, Afghanistan or nearby countries where troops were participating in the war effort.
About twice as many women serving in the wars committed suicide as did women not sent to war, the report said.
