Death by own action in troops remains a stubborn issue
The report highlights that US forces in Iraq, Syria and surrounding areas have faced high casualties from enemy action, while deaths by own action grew since 2001. It notes Delta Force operations, notable incidents in 2015 and 2016, and ranks the Army highest for self-inflicted deaths among services. General Chiarelli calls it a medical illness needing research and leadership to reduce crisis reports.
