   Расчёт

   The Costs of War Project aggregates DoD DCAS casualty totals with VA and Census deployment counts. Dividing 7,053 total US service member deaths by 1.9 million unique deployed service members ≈ 3.71e-3, or roughly 1 in 270 per person who deployed during the post-9/11 wars. Using the upper Costs of War servicemember figure of 3 million (which counts more peripheral deployments) pushes the denominator up and the rate down to roughly 1 in 425. The 1.9M-denominator figure is used as the headline because it matches the Institute of Medicine (NCBI source below) count of unique OEF/OIF deployers and because it is the population most readers would think of when they picture "a soldier who went to the war". Per-tour (not per-person) rates are lower still, because service members averaged ~1.6 deployments each: roughly 7,053 / 3,000,000 tours ≈ 1 in 425 per deployment.

   Независимость

   Costs of War draws its US military death count from the DoD Defense Casualty Analysis System (DCAS), which is the same upstream source the IOM/NCBI volume below used. Treat the two sources as consistent rather than fully independent on the death-count side; they are independent on the servicemember-count side, which Costs of War derives from Census/VA data while the IOM derived it from DoD personnel tempo reports.

   Расчёт

   The IOM volume is the peer-reviewed benchmark for OEF/OIF deployment totals and gives the 1.9 million unique-deployer figure used in the normalized calculation. Its November 2009 snapshot of 5,286 deaths across roughly the first eight years of the wars implies an average of ~660 US military deaths per year during the peak of OEF/OIF, or roughly 1 hostile+non-hostile death per ~360 deployed service members at that point in the conflict — consistent with the 1-in-270 figure after the wars continued through 2021 and the cumulative death count reached ~7,053.

   Независимость

   The IOM’s casualty total is drawn directly from DoD reporting, so it is not independent of DCAS on the death-count pipeline. Cited here primarily for the peer-reviewed deployment-count denominator.

   Provides the formal citation for the Russian casualty estimate referenced in the regional_breakdown. Each entry requires verification from official Russian sources, obituaries, social media posts with photograph matching, or cemetery photographs. Automated de-duplication. The 45-65% capture rate estimate comes from cross-referencing with Probate Registry excess male mortality analysis.
