“This report focuses specifically on mortality among the dynamic 35-year cohort of Canadian Forces (CF) personnel who enrolled between 1972 and 2006, inclusively. The first objective of this report was to examine causes of death for persons with a history of military service (still serving/released). Additionally, there was an interest from VAC to examine causes of death for persons who were released from the military.”
