    Author: Fraser C.
    Journal: Nurs Clin North Am; 2011 Dec; 46(4):445-55, vi. PubMed ID: 22055902.
    Abstract:
    Today's military has a greater percentage of families and children in comparison with previous generations. There are many, and unique, demands on military families made by the ongoing conflicts, and military life can be stressful. The presence of an increasing number of stressors is associated with an increased likelihood of domestic violence in military families and sexual trauma in service members. In this article, literature and research are presented to provide an overview of military deployment and families, and the effect of deployment on families; this is followed by a review of research on family violence and military sexual trauma.
