US Military Is America's Heaviest-Drinking Profession, Survey Finds

“This comes as a surprise," said no one, ever, of a new analysis that finds military members drink alcohol more than workers in any other job. A review of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's survey data from 2013 through 2017 by a behavioral health company has found that troops spend more days a year consuming alcohol than people in any other industry. They also binge-drink more, imbibing at least four or five alcoholic beverages a day in one sitting at least 41 days a year, the most of any occupation. That's the CDC's definition of binge-drinking, depending on gender. The military personnel surveyed said they binge-drank about a third of the days they consumed alcohol.
