You stand a better chance of getting Killed
in Detroit MI than in Iraq or Afghanistan...

More killed there in less then One Year than
in 3 years of Combat over there in the Sandbox...

Very, very, very low. Several million men and women have served in Iraq and Afghanistan. Just over 5,000 have died. More than 5,000 people have been murdered in Los Angeles County during the same time we've been in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Don't know an exact percentage, but it is more likely that any American will die in America just living everyday life than it is for a soldier to die in combat.

There is no way to tell. It changes based on the fighting going on during your time in the army. Big difference in casualty rates between 1918 and 1978, or 1944 and 1994.
