Alcohol abuse continues to trouble the U.S. Marine Corps despite efforts to promote treatment, a Pentagon report indicates. The corps has had the highest rates of alcoholism among the armed forces, a report by the Pentagon's Armed Forces Health Surveillance Center and the Defense Centers of Excellence for Psychological Health and Traumatic Brain Injury finds. Last year, nine Marines died in alcohol-related vehicle accidents, the corps reported.
The last two fiscal years saw the highest numbers of alcohol-related injuries among Marines since 2005 -- 114 incidents in 2010 and 118 in 2009 -- said the Naval Safety Center, but the numbers killed or totally disabled in accidents fell.
