Employment Situation of Veterans News Release<\/h1>\n
\n
\nFor release 10:00 a.m. (ET) Tuesday, March 21, 2023              \t           USDL-23-0537\n\nTechnical information:  (202) 691-6378  *  cpsinfo@bls.gov  *  www.bls.gov\/cps  \nMedia contact:          (202) 691-5902  *  PressOffice@bls.gov\n\n\n                        EMPLOYMENT SITUATION OF VETERANS -- 2022 \n\n\nThe unemployment rate for veterans who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces at\nany time since September 2001--a group referred to as Gulf War-era II veterans--declined \nto 3.1 percent in 2022 and the rate for all veterans decreased to 2.8 percent, the U.S.\nBureau of Labor Statistics reported today. In August 2022, 41 percent of Gulf War-era II\nveterans had a service-connected disability, compared with 27 percent of all veterans. \n\nThis information was obtained from the Current Population Survey (CPS), a monthly sample\nsurvey of about 60,000 eligible households that provides data on employment, unemployment,\nand persons not in the labor force in the United States. Data about veterans are collected\nmonthly in the CPS; these monthly data are the source of the 2022 annual averages presented\nin this news release. In August 2022, a supplement to the CPS collected additional \ninformation about veterans on topics such as service-connected disability and veterans'\ncurrent or past Reserve or National Guard membership. The supplement was co-sponsored by\nthe U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the U.S. Department of Labor's Veterans'\nEmployment and Training Service. For more information, see the Technical Note in this \nnews release. \n\nHighlights from the 2022 data:\n\n --The unemployment rate for all veterans (2.8 percent) was lower than the rate for\n   nonveterans (3.6 percent) in 2022. (See table A.)\n\n --Unemployment rates for both male and female veterans decreased to 2.8 percent in\n   2022. (See table A.)\n\n --Unemployment rates for White and Black veterans were lower than for their nonveteran\n   counterparts in 2022, while the rates for Asian and Hispanic veterans were not\n   statistically different than their nonveteran counterparts. (See table 1.)\n\n --Among the 250,000 unemployed veterans in 2022, 54 percent were ages 25 to 54, 39 percent\n   were age 55 and over, and 7 percent were ages 18 to 24. (See table 2A.)\n\n --Among Gulf War-era II veterans, the unemployment rate of veterans with a service-connected\n   disability was little changed at 3.4 percent and the rate for veterans with no disability\n   decreased to 1.9 percent in August 2022. (See table 7.)\n\n --Gulf War-era II veterans who reported a service-connected disability rating of less \n   than 30 percent were much more likely to be in the labor force than those with a rating\n   of 60 percent or higher in August 2022 (94.8 percent compared with 65.9 percent). (See \n   table 7.)\n\n --In August 2022, 27 percent of employed veterans with a service-connected disability \n   worked in the public sector, compared with 22 percent of veterans with no disability \n   and 13 percent of nonveterans. (See table 8.)\n\n --In 2022, the unemployment rate of veterans varied across the country, ranging from\n   0.7 percent in North Dakota to 5.2 percent in Nevada. (See table 6A.)\n\nThe Veteran Population\n\nIn 2022, 18.4 million men and women were veterans, accounting for about 7 percent of the civilian\nnoninstitutional population age 18 and over. Of all veterans, about 1 in 10 were women. In the\nsurvey, veterans are defined as men and women who have previously served on active duty in the \nU.S. Armed Forces and who were civilians at the time these data were collected. \n\nVeterans are much more likely to be men than are nonveterans, and they also tend to be older. \nIn part, this reflects the characteristics of veterans who served during World War II, the Korean\nWar, and the Vietnam era, all of whom are now 65 years and over. Veterans who served during \nthese wartime periods accounted for about one-third (6.2 million) of the total veteran population\nin 2022. Forty-four percent of veterans (8.1 million) served during Gulf War era I (August 1990\nto August 2001) or Gulf War era II (September 2001 to present). Twenty-two percent (4.0 million)\nserved outside these designated wartime periods. (See tables 1 and 2A.)\n\nGulf War-era II Veterans \n\nIn 2022, there were 4.9 million veterans who had served during Gulf War era II (September 2001 \nto present). Eighteen percent of these veterans were women, compared with about 4 percent of \nveterans from World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam era. Thirty-six percent of all Gulf\nWar-era II veterans were between the ages of 35 and 44. (See tables 1 and 2A.) \n\nIn 2022, the unemployment rate for Gulf War-era II veterans declined to 3.1 percent and was below\nthe rate in 2019 (3.5 percent) prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Among Gulf War-era II veterans,\nthe unemployment rates for men and women were little different from each other and both declined\nin 2022 (to 3.1 percent and 2.9 percent, respectively). (See table A.) \n\nThe overall unemployment rate for male Gulf War-era II veterans, at 3.1 percent, was lower than\nthe rate for male nonveterans, at 3.7 percent, in 2022. By age, unemployment rates for male Gulf\nWar-era II veterans and nonveterans were not statistically different, with one exception: 45- to\n54-year-old male Gulf War-era II veterans had an unemployment rate of 1.6 percent, lower than the\nrate of 2.4 percent for their nonveteran counterparts. (See table 2B.) \n\nThe overall unemployment rate for female Gulf War-era II veterans, at 2.9 percent, was not \nstatistically different from the rate for female nonveterans (3.5 percent) in 2022. By age,\nunemployment rates for female Gulf War-era II veterans and nonveterans were not statistically\ndifferent. (See table 2C.)\n\nEmployed Gulf War-era II veteran men were more likely to work in management, professional, and\nrelated occupations than employed nonveteran men (43 percent and 40 percent, respectively),\nwhile these veterans were less likely to work in sales and office occupations than their \nnonveteran counterparts (12 percent and 14 percent, respectively). Employed Gulf War-era II \nveteran women were less likely to work in service occupations than their nonveteran counterparts\n(13 percent and 19 percent, respectively). (See table 4.)\n\nEmployed Gulf War-era II veteran men were more than twice as likely to work in the public sector\nin 2022 as their employed nonveteran counterparts--26 percent versus 10 percent. Employed female\nGulf War-era II veterans were also more likely to work in the public sector than nonveteran \nwomen--27 percent versus 16 percent. Among the employed, 14 percent of all Gulf War-era II \nveterans worked for the federal government, compared with 2 percent of nonveterans. (See table 5.) \n\nIn August 2022, 42 percent of Gulf War-era II veterans reported serving in Iraq, Afghanistan,\nor both locations. These veterans had an unemployment rate of 2.3 percent, little different \nthan the rate for Gulf War-era II veterans who served elsewhere (2.4 percent). (See table 10.)\n\nGulf War-era I Veterans\n\nIn 2022, of the 3.2 million veterans who served during Gulf War era I (August 1990 to August 2001),\n15 percent were women. All Gulf War-era I veterans were age 35 and over in 2022, compared with\n64 percent of Gulf War-era II veterans. Forty-eight percent of Gulf War-era I veterans were \nages 45 to 54, 28 percent were ages 55 to 64, 13 percent were age 65 and over, and 12 percent\nwere ages 35 to 44. (See tables 1 and 2A.)\n\nThe unemployment rate for Gulf War-era I veterans was 2.1 percent in 2022, down by 1.4 percentage\npoints from the prior year. The jobless rate for Gulf War-era I veterans in 2022 was below\nits pre-pandemic rate of 2.6 percent in 2019. \n\nIn 2022, the unemployment rate for male Gulf War-era I veterans (2.1 percent) was lower than\nthat of their Gulf War-era II counterparts (3.1 percent). The difference in unemployment rates\nreflects, at least in part, the older age profile of veterans who served during Gulf War era I. \nYounger people--whether veterans or nonveterans--tend to have higher unemployment rates than\nolder people. The rate for female Gulf War-era I veterans (1.8 percent) was slightly lower\nthan the rate for female Gulf War-era II veterans (2.9 percent). Among Gulf War-era I veterans,\nthe unemployment rate declined for men but changed little for women in 2022; the rates for\nmen and women were not statistically different. (See tables 2B and 2C.)\n\nVeterans of Other Service Periods \n\nIn 2022, 4.0 million veterans had served on active duty during \"other service periods,\" mainly\nbetween the Korean War and the Vietnam era and between the Vietnam era and Gulf War era I.\nAll veterans from this period of service were age 45 and over at the time of the survey.\nHalf of these veterans were ages 55 to 64, 44 percent were age 65 and over, and 6 percent\nwere ages 45 to 54. In 2022, 1 in 10 veterans of other service periods were women. (See \ntables 1 and 2A.) \n\nThe jobless rate for veterans of other service periods declined to 2.7 percent in 2022 and\nis little different from the rate in 2019 (3.0 percent). Among veterans of other service\nperiods, the unemployment rate for men (2.7 percent) was not statistically different from\nthe rate for women (3.1 percent) in 2022. The jobless rate for male veterans of other service\nperiods declined over the year, while the rate for women was little changed from the prior year.\n(See table 1.)\n\nVeterans with a Service-connected Disability\n\nIn August 2022, 4.9 million veterans, or 27 percent of all veterans, had a service-connected\ndisability. Veterans with a service-connected disability are assigned a disability rating by\nthe U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs or the U.S. Department of Defense. Ratings range from\n0 to 100 percent, in increments of 10 percentage points, depending on the severity of the\ncondition. (See table 7.) \n\nThe unemployment rate for veterans with a service-connected disability changed little at 3.6\npercent in August 2022. The rate for veterans with no disability declined to 2.7 percent and\nwas not statistically different from the rate for veterans with a service-connected disability.\nThe unemployment rates for male and female veterans with a service-connected disability changed\nlittle over the year to 3.7 percent and 3.2 percent, respectively, in August 2022. These rates\nwere not statistically different from each other. The labor force participation rate for \nveterans with a service-connected disability (47.7 percent) was also not statistically different\nthan the rate for veterans with no disability (48.4 percent). \n\nAmong veterans with a service-connected disability, 23 percent reported a disability rating\nof less than 30 percent, while 50 percent had a rating of 60 percent or higher. In August 2022,\nveterans with a service-connected disability rating of less than 30 percent were much more\nlikely to be in the labor force than those with a rating of 60 percent or higher (52.6 percent\nversus 44.2 percent). The unemployment rate for veterans with a disability rating of less than\n30 percent was 3.5 percent, little different than the rate for those with a disability rating\nof 60 percent or higher, at 3.7 percent.\n\nAmong veterans who served during Gulf War era II, 41 percent (2.0 million) reported a service-\nconnected disability in August 2022. The labor force participation rate of all Gulf War-era\nII veterans with a service-connected disability was 74.3 percent, lower than the rate for \nveterans from this period with no service-connected disability (86.3 percent). Among Gulf War-era\nII veterans, the unemployment rate for those with a service-connected disability was 3.4 percent,\nnot statistically different than the rate for those with no disability (1.9 percent). \n\nAmong Gulf War-era II veterans with a service-connected disability, 15 percent reported a\ndisability rating of less than 30 percent and 58 percent reported a disability rating of 60\npercent or higher in August 2022. Gulf War-era II veterans who reported a disability rating\nof less than 30 percent were much more likely to be in the labor force than those with a\nrating of 60 percent or higher (94.8 percent compared with 65.9 percent). The unemployment\nrate for veterans with a disability rating of less than 30 percent was 7.4 percent in August\n2022, higher than the rate for those with a disability rating of 60 percent or higher, at 2.6\npercent.\n\nIn August 2022, 30 percent (978,000) of veterans who served during Gulf War era I reported\na service-connected disability. Their labor force participation rate (55.8 percent) was lower\nthan the rate for Gulf War-era I veterans who did not have a service-connected disability (79.6\npercent). The unemployment rate for Gulf War-era I veterans with a service-connected disability\n(4.3 percent) was higher than the rate for those without a service-connected disability (1.9\npercent).\n\nThirteen percent (534,000) of veterans who served during other service periods reported a \nservice-connected disability in August 2022. The labor force participation rate of these \nveterans (35.9 percent) was lower than their counterparts without a service-connected disability\n(44.2 percent). The unemployment rates were not statistically different for veterans with a\nservice-connected disability (2.4 percent) and those with no disability (3.4 percent).\n\nRegardless of period of service, many veterans with a service-connected disability work in\nthe public sector. In August 2022, 27 percent of employed veterans with a service-connected\ndisability worked in federal, state, or local government, compared with 22 percent of veterans\nwith no disability and 13 percent of nonveterans. Eighteen percent of employed veterans with\na service-connected disability worked for the federal government, compared with 7 percent of\nveterans with no disability and 2 percent of nonveterans. (See table 8.)\n\nReserve and National Guard Membership\n\nIn August 2022, 34 percent of Gulf War-era II veterans were current or past members of the\nReserve or National Guard. The labor force participation rate was higher for veterans of\nthis period who were current or past members of the Reserve or National Guard (85.3 percent)\nthan for veterans who had never been members (77.5 percent). Among Gulf War-era II veterans,\nthose who were current or past members of the Reserve or National Guard had an unemployment\nrate of 3.2 percent, little changed from a year earlier, while the rate for those who had\nnever been members declined to 1.9 percent. (See table 9.)\n\n\n\n<\/pre>\n

\n\t\tNOTE: Veterans are men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and were not on active duty at the time of the survey. Gulf War-era II veterans served on active duty anywhere in the world sometime since September 2001. Nonveterans never served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. Effective with data for January 2021, estimates for veterans incorporate population controls derived from an updated Department of Veterans Affairs population model.\n\t<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n
<\/p>\n
\nTechnical Note\n\n   The data in this release were collected through the Current Population Survey\n(CPS). The CPS\u0097a monthly survey of about 60,000 eligible households conducted by the\nU.S. Census Bureau for the Bureau of Labor Statistics\u0097obtains information on\nemployment and unemployment among the nation's civilian noninstitutional population\nage 16 and over.\n\n   Most of the data in this release are annual averages, compiled from the results\nof the monthly survey. In August, a supplement to the CPS collected additional \ninformation about veterans on topics such as service-connected disability, veterans'\nReserve or National Guard status, and veterans who served in Iraq and\/or Afghanistan.\nThe supplement was co-sponsored by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and by \nthe U.S. Department of Labor's Veterans' Employment and Training Service. Questions\nwere asked of persons 17 years of age and older regarding their prior service in the\nU.S. Armed Forces. Data are tabulated for persons 18 years of age and older.\n\n   If you are deaf, hard of hearing, or have a speech disability, please dial 7-1-1\nto access telecommunications relay services.\n\nDefinitions\n\n   The definitions underlying the data in this release are as follows:\n\n   Veterans are men and women who previously served on active duty in the U.S. Armed\nForces and who were civilians at the time they were surveyed. Members of the Reserve\nand National Guard are counted as veterans if they had ever been called to active \nduty. Persons who are on active duty at the time of the survey are outside the scope\nof the survey and thus not in the estimates shown here, as are persons who reside in\ninstitutions, such as nursing homes and prisons.\n   \n   World War II, Korean War, Vietnam-era, and Gulf War-era veterans are men and \nwomen who served in the U.S. Armed Forces during these periods of service, \nregardless of where in the world they served. Veterans who served in more than one\nwartime period are classified in the most recent one.\n\n   Veterans of other service periods are men and women who served in the U.S. Armed\nForces at any time other than World War II, the Korean War, the Vietnam era, or the\nGulf War era. Although U.S. Armed Forces were engaged in several armed conflicts \nduring other service periods, these conflicts were more limited in scope and included\na smaller proportion of the Armed Forces than the selected wartime periods. Veterans\nwho served during one of the selected wartime periods and during another period are\nclassified in the wartime period.\n\n   Nonveterans are men and women who never served on active duty in the U.S. Armed\nForces.\n\n   Veteran status is obtained from responses to the question, \"Did you ever serve on\nactive duty in the U.S. Armed Forces?\"\n\n   Period of service identifies when a veteran served in the Armed Forces, but not \nthe location of their service. It is obtained from answers to the question asked of\nveterans, \"When did you serve on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces?\" The following\nservice periods are identified:\n\n      Gulf War era II \u0097 September 2001-present\n      Gulf War era I \u0097 August 1990-August 2001\n      Vietnam era \u0097 August 1964-April 1975\n      Korean War \u0097 July 1950-January 1955\n      World War II \u0097 December 1941-December 1946\n      Other service periods \u0097 All other time periods\n\n   Veterans could have served anywhere in the world during these periods of service.\nVeterans are counted only in one period of service, their most recent wartime \nperiod. Veterans who served in more than one wartime period are classified in the \nmost recent one. Veterans who served in both a wartime period and any other service\nperiod are classified in the wartime period. The period-of-service definitions are \nmodified occasionally to reflect changes in law, regulations, and program needs of \nthe survey sponsors.\n\n   Veterans who served in Iraq, Afghanistan, or both are individuals who served in\nIraq at any time since March 2003, in Afghanistan at any time since October 2001, or\nin both locations. Service in Iraq or Afghanistan is determined by answers to two \nquestions: \"Did you serve in Iraq, off the coast of Iraq, or did you fly missions \nover Iraq at any time since March 2003?\" and \"Did you serve in Afghanistan, or did \nyou fly missions over Afghanistan, at any time since October 2001?\"\n\n   Presence of service-connected disability is determined by answers to two questions\nbeginning in August 2021: \"Have you filed a claim for or received a rating from the\nDepartment of Veterans Affairs or the Department of Defense confirming that you have\na service-connected disability; that is, a health condition or impairment caused or\nmade worse by military service?\u0094 and (asked of those who said yes) \u0093Did you receive\na VA disability rating?\u0094  People who applied for and received a service-connected \ndisability rating are classified as having a service-connected disability. People \nwho applied for but did not receive a service-connected disability rating are \nclassified as without a service-connected disability.\n\n   Service-connected disability rating is based on answers to the question, \"What\nis your current VA service-connected disability rating?\" Answers can range from 0 \nto 100 percent, in increments of 10 percentage points. Ratings are determined by \nthe VA or DoD from a rating schedule published in the Code of Federal Regulations,\nTitle 38, \"Pensions, Bonuses, and Veterans' Relief,\" Part 4\u0097\"Schedule for Rating \nDisabilities.\" The rating schedule is \"primarily a guide in the evaluation of \ndisability resulting from all types of diseases and injuries encountered as a result\nof or incident to military service. The percentage ratings represent as far as can\npracticably be determined the average impairment in earning capacity resulting from\nsuch diseases and injuries and their residual conditions in civil occupations.\" \nPart 4 contains a listing of hundreds of possible disorders and assigns ratings of\n0 through 100 percent, with instructions for rating multiple disorders.\n\n   Reserve and National Guard membership refers only to Gulf War-era veterans who\nare current or past members of the Reserve or National Guard. Members of the \nReserve and National Guard are counted as veterans if they had ever been called to\nactive duty. These data do not refer to all persons who may have ever served in the\nReserve or National Guard. Beginning in August 2021, Reserve or National Guard \nstatus is obtained from answers to the question asked of veterans, \u0093Have you ever\nbeen a member of the Reserve or National Guard?\u0094 \n\nReliability of the estimates\n\n   Statistics based on the CPS are subject to both sampling and nonsampling error.\nWhen a sample, rather than the entire population, is surveyed, there is a chance\nthat the sample estimates will differ from the true population values they \nrepresent. The component of this difference that occurs because samples differ by\nchance is known as sampling error, and its variability is measured by the standard\nerror of the estimate. There is about a 90-percent chance, or level of confidence, \nthat an estimate based on a sample will differ by no more than 1.6 standard errors \nfrom the true population value because of sampling error. BLS analyses are generally\nconducted at the 90-percent level of confidence.\n\n   The CPS data also are affected by nonsampling error. Nonsampling error can occur\nfor many reasons, including the failure to sample a segment of the population, the\ninability to obtain information for all respondents in the sample, the inability or\nunwillingness of respondents to provide correct information, and errors made in the\ncollection or processing of the data.\n\n   Information about the reliability of national data from the CPS and instructions\non how to generate standard errors are available at \nwww.bls.gov\/cps\/documentation.htm#reliability.\n\n   For a discussion of the reliability of state estimates from the CPS, such as \nthose in tables 6A and 6B of this release, see \nwww.bls.gov\/opub\/geographic-profile\/home.htm.\n\nComparability of the estimates\n\n   Effective with data for January 2021, estimates for veterans incorporate \npopulation controls derived from a new Department of Veterans Affairs Veteran\nPopulation Projection Model (VetPop2018). In accordance with usual practice, BLS \ndid not revise estimates for previous years. Information about the Veteran \nPopulation Projection Model is available from the Department of Veterans Affairs at\nwww.va.gov\/vetdata\/docs\/Demographics\/New_Vetpop_Model\/VP_18_A_Brief_Description.pdf.\n\n\n\n<\/pre>\n

\n\t\tNOTE: Veterans are men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and were not on active duty at the time of the survey. Nonveterans never served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. Veterans could have served anywhere in the world during these periods of service: Gulf War era II (September 2001-present), Gulf War era I (August 1990-August 2001), Vietnam era (August 1964-April 1975), Korean War (July 1950-January 1955), World War II (December 1941-December 1946), and other service periods (all other time periods). Veterans are counted in only one period of service, their most recent wartime period. Veterans who served in more than one wartime period are classified in the most recent one. Veterans who served in both a wartime period and any other service period are classified in the wartime period. Estimates for the above race groups (White, Black or African American, and Asian) do not sum to totals because data are not presented for all races. Persons whose ethnicity is identified as Hispanic or Latino may be of any race. Dash indicates no data or data that do not meet publication criteria (values not shown where base is less than 35,000).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n

\n\t\tNOTE: Veterans are men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and were not on active duty at the time of the survey. Nonveterans never served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. Veterans could have served anywhere in the world during these periods of service: Gulf War era II (September 2001-present), Gulf War era I (August 1990-August 2001), Vietnam era (August 1964-April 1975), Korean War (July 1950-January 1955), World War II (December 1941-December 1946), and other service periods (all other time periods). Veterans are counted in only one period of service, their most recent wartime period. Veterans who served in more than one wartime period are classified in the most recent one. Veterans who served in both a wartime period and any other service period are classified in the wartime period. Dash indicates no data or data that do not meet publication criteria (values not shown where base is less than 35,000).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n

\n\t\tNOTE: Veterans are men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and were not on active duty at the time of the survey. Nonveterans never served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. Veterans could have served anywhere in the world during these periods of service: Gulf War era II (September 2001-present), Gulf War era I (August 1990-August 2001), Vietnam era (August 1964-April 1975), Korean War (July 1950-January 1955), World War II (December 1941-December 1946), and other service periods (all other time periods). Veterans are counted in only one period of service, their most recent wartime period. Veterans who served in more than one wartime period are classified in the most recent one. Veterans who served in both a wartime period and any other service period are classified in the wartime period.

\n\t\tNOTE: Veterans are men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and were not on active duty at the time of the survey. Nonveterans never served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. Veterans could have served anywhere in the world during these periods of service: Gulf War era II (September 2001-present), Gulf War era I (August 1990-August 2001), Vietnam era (August 1964-April 1975), Korean War (July 1950-January 1955), World War II (December 1941-December 1946), and other service periods (all other time periods). Veterans are counted in only one period of service, their most recent wartime period. Veterans who served in more than one wartime period are classified in the most recent one. Veterans who served in both a wartime period and any other service period are classified in the wartime period. Dash indicates no data or data that do not meet publication criteria (values not shown where base is less than 35,000).\n\t<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n

\n\t\tNOTE: Veterans are men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and were not on active duty at the time of the survey. Nonveterans never served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. Veterans could have served anywhere in the world during these periods of service: Gulf War era II (September 2001-present), Gulf War era I (August 1990-August 2001), Vietnam era (August 1964-April 1975), Korean War (July 1950-January 1955), World War II (December 1941-December 1946), and other service periods (all other time periods). Veterans are counted in only one period of service, their most recent wartime period. Veterans who served in more than one wartime period are classified in the most recent one. Veterans who served in both a wartime period and any other service period are classified in the wartime period. Dash indicates no data or data that do not meet publication criteria (values not shown where base is less than 35,000).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n

NOTE: Veterans are men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and were not on active duty at the time of the survey. Veterans could have served anywhere in the world during these periods of service: Gulf War era II (September 2001-present), Gulf War era I (August 1990-August 2001), Vietnam era (August 1964-April 1975), Korean War (July 1950-January 1955), World War II (December 1941-December 1946), and other service periods (all other time periods). Veterans are counted in only one period of service, their most recent wartime period. Veterans who served in more than one wartime period are classified in the most recent one. Veterans who served in both a wartime period and any other service period are classified in the wartime period. A service-connected disability is a health condition or impairment caused or made worse by military service. The associated disability rating, which can range from 0 to 100 percent, is determined from a rating schedule published in the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations, “Title 38.” More information appears in the Technical Note of this release. Beginning with data for August 2015, estimates from the veterans supplement reflect a change in the weighting methodology.  Dash indicates no data or data that do not meet publication criteria (values not shown where base is less than 75,000).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n

\t\t\t\t\tNOTE: Veterans are men and women who served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces and were not on active duty at the time of the survey. The Gulf War era began in August 1990 and continues to the present day. It is divided into two periods of service: Gulf War era II (September 2001-present) and Gulf War era I (August 1990-August 2001). Veterans are counted in only one period of service, their most recent period. Data do not include Reserve and National Guard members who have never been called to Active Duty. Beginning with data for August 2015, estimates from the veterans supplement reflect a change in the weighting methodology.  Dash indicates no data or data that do not meet publication criteria (values not shown where base is less than 75,000).<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n
