US Military Divorce Rate Soars

June 2nd, 2008 · No Comments

As the war in Iraq drags on, it has been taking a heavy toll on the relationships of many US soldiers. Statistics show over 3,000 more military divorces, from 5,500 in 2001 to 8,700 in 2007  - an increase of over 50% in just 5 years. While the relationship strain caused by active duty military service is nothing new, the extended and frequent tours of soldiers in Iraq appears to be having an especially significant impact.

In response to the growing crisis, the army has launched a series of relationship-based initiatives which offer advice, counseling, and support to soldiers in strained relationships.
