This study examined health ratings, deployment frequency, and combat exposure of military servicemembers to identify the degree of relationship between multiple combat deployments and health outcomes. Despite considerable research on combat exposure in military members, few studies have investigated the compounding nature of combat exposure and repeated combat deployments since the increase in deployments throughout the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts. This quantitative study surveyed 116 servicemembers from all military branches on combat-related experiences, number of deployments, and general, psychological, and physical health. Results from logistic and linear regression analyses showed combat exposure to be significantly correlated with neurological and head, ears, eyes, nose, and throat problems. Additional analysis showed age, gender, and race to be other contributing factors in health conditions. However, the number of deployments was not found to be associated with physical or psychological health outcomes. Results of this study suggest that certain health conditions are more likely to be endorsed by servicemembers exposed to combat when compared to those who completed multiple deployments. Comprehensive investigations should continually focus on combat deployments and their impact on overall health of military forces.
