If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theater of operations during the past 22 months, and a total of 2112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000 soldiers. A very sad thing for U.S. Soldiers and troops, however; the firearm death rate in Washington, DC is 80.6 per 100,000 for the same period. That means you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in the US capital - - (which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the US) - - than you are likely to be shot and killed in Iraq Subsequent question: Should the U.S.pull out of Washington.?
