If you had bothered to read the article, the particular study that I cited only looked at males.....military and non military. No females.

The article says -

"Male U.S. veterans are twice as likely to die by suicide than people with no military service", perhaps it meant "than men with no military service", but I can't be blamed for its lack of precision.


The article also said that the study tracked 320k men, a third of whom had served in the military:

"The study tracked 320,890 U.S. men, about a third of whom served in the U.S. military between 1917 and 1994. The rest had no military background."

That is the problem. If Ted thinks he won't agree with it he never reads it. When you look up Closed Minded in the dictionary Ted's picture is there.
