Abstract
Previously, it was unknown if 100% service-connected U.S. veterans have a diminished mortality. However, it is widely documented that this patient population experiences worse health due to their military service, so it is logical that their mortality will be diminished due to their worse health. This research study helped address an apparent gap in the literature regarding the mortality of 100% service-connected U.S. veterans. The objective of this research study was to answer the question, what is the average age at death of 100% service-connected U.S. veterans? This research study is a pilot study designed to help answer this initial question. This is important because it will help determine if the mortality of this U.S. veteran population is reduced due to their military service.
