This study applies a life course framework to the question of how military service influences later criminal behavior. The few studies that have examined the relationship between military service and criminal behavior tend to have ignored pre-military characteristics, and results vary depending on the time period during which the sample served in the military. Despite the potential impact of military service in later life, little research attention has focused on this topic, particularly in criminology. As such, it has had a great influence in the lives of a large proportion of the U.S. history, the military has served as one of the largest employers and educators of young men and women.
