In this project we shed light on the workforce of the private military and security industry. Looking at contractors that died in Iraq during the Iraq War the project created a dataset that offers empirical insights into the general discussion on the industry. The project compares and contrast the workforce to enlisted soldiers, identifying the similarities and differences between those two populations.
