It is my (possibly flawed) understanding that because of improvement in personal armor, armored vehicles, etc. deaths in combat have in general dropped, but the psychological repercussions have not. So you still have plenty of people with severe PTSD that end up being part of that terrible 'self-inflicted' statistic.
