twentyseven Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Soldier didn't make the list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puck Head Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Typically electrical line workers are in the top 7 or so....they must have had a good year :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puck Head Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Soldier didn't make the list? It wasn't part of the equation. If so, it completely dwarfs the rest in death per 100,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puck Head Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Actually I take that back. Per 100,000...the American Soldier has apprxox... 27- Hostile Deaths 25- Accident 17- Self Inflicted 15- Illness I believe combining all of that still falls short of Commercial Fisherman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought those numbers would be a lot higher than that. Especially the top 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puck Head Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Wow .... I thought those numbers would be a lot higher than that. Especially the top 2. Remember, that number represents Armed Forces. If you narrowed it down to those deployed, espeically in combat areas...i'm sure it's much higher.
