    Looking into where the blog got the results for the navy seals data, it appears to link back to a law firm specializing in divorces, and it’s not very clear where that firm even got the data, as it is summarized without a lot of citations. If anyone can track down where the original study data is, sharing would be really great to confirm what they are saying.

    Looking at the summary they provided though, seems even among other service members, navy seals were an outlier (with rates reported around 4% or less across the branches for active duty personnel). Did they look into what lead to that disparity? Maybe it’s the type of assignments, or maybe something is being selected in the candidates?
