Question
I have looked everywhere and i cannot find which states the soldiers in the U.S. Armed Forces come from.  i would like to know the percentage of soldiers that come from each state. Do you have either the answer or recources with the answer?

Answer
Dear Christopher --

The Army has Soldiers from every state and from its associated territories, too.  We also have people from other nations serving as enlisted Soldiers.

For the actual percentage from each state, you will have to send an inquiry to the Department of Defense, Public Affairs Office.  You can reach their question site at:
