What percentage of military men cheat on their wives?

Finding official statistics about infidelity in the military is nearly impossible, however we were able to find some unofficial statistics which were rather eye-opening.

According to some military personnel, their guess about cheating on significant others is an average of around 85%! A stat far greater than that of the civilian workforce.

One of the reasons suspected is that for those that are deployed, a feeling of each day possibly being their last leads to a feeling of "what happens here stays here."

For those both deployed, and waiting at home, sometimes the opportunity arises and they feel a need for some understanding and companionship.

TwoOfUs.org offers some great Tips for Married Couples Dealing With Deployment, and MillitaryOneSource provides their 10 Tips for Keeping a Relationship Strong During Deployment.

ABC News is reporting that although military divorce cases go through civilian courts, they often present a unique set of challenges with deployments, military pensions and child custody.
