The Post-Baghdad Binge
A new study published today in JAMA (link) reports that binge drinking and other alcohol-related problems have been pervasive among national guardsmen and army reservists following deployment to Iraq and Afghanistan. The study found that the risk of developing new drinking problems in those who fought abroad, compared to the guardsmen and reservists who weren't deployed, was about 60 percent higher.
