    Also toss in how combat troops are generally 17-24 year old men. Idk if the US skews much higher, but they're generally quite young and getting permanently fucked up over what's usually almost nothing (not to mention the "other side")

      Right? The frontal lobe doesn't really finish developing in the human brain until your mid 20s.

      "Young, dumb, and full of cum" isn't an enduring line about the state of enlistees for no reason.
