Same as always. Under trained and over worked soldiers and sailors doing more with less. Accidents are bound to happen. Most military people don’t stay in more than one or two enlistments. For example, many of the sailors not assigned to the USS Gerald R Ford will rotate off sea duty before it ever goes on its first deployment in a couple of years meaning that new, inexperienced sailors will take their place.

The Military is a dangerous occupation.

Even in the 1980’s we would kill or maim about 2,000 soldiers a year. Lack of proper training and supervision can increase those number but when you “play” with explosives, tanks, missiles, and guns, the chances of getting injured are much higher than the normal desk job.
