Because of unsanitary living conditions, diseases contracted because of drinking dirty water, diseases contracted easily such as malaria, and also because 21% of the population was killed in a genocide called the Kmher Rouge in 1975, and that 21% would now be the 70-80 year olds in Cambodia, but instead the average life expectancy is just 62.

What is the Life Expectancy of a Soldier in Iraq?

The life expectancy really depends on what branch of the military you are in and what platoon you are in... Let's say if you are a marine, your average life expectancy is 1.5-2.5 years... Yeah, I know, it's low. And the army isn't much higher, it is about 3-4.5 years... I myself am going to be an Army Ranger, their life expectancy is good, but not great, it's around 5-7.5 years.
