Different components of military service, such as deployment, combat, blast, and head injury, have been posited as possible causes. There is additional literature in the sports realm regarding the effect of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) on mental health. Some literature to date supports these suppositions, whereas others disagree. The present study is a secondary analysis of data to add to the understanding of these complex relationships.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Materials and Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>452 young Marine Corps officers (81.46% [n\u2009=\u2009334] male; 25.69\u2009\u00b1\u20094.67 years old) enrolled at The Basic School or Marine Corps University completed an online survey of valid and reliable psychometrics and demographic information. General and generalized linear models, based on variable distribution, were built to test the effects of mTBI history, blast, deployment, and combat exposures on positive (social wellbeing) and negative (moral injury, depression, post-traumatic stress) mental health symptom variance.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Combat had the most consistent effects on negative mental health: moral injury (Wald \u03c72(1)\u2009=\u20097.25), depression (Wald \u03c72(1)\u2009=\u20095.90), and post-traumatic stress (Wald \u03c72(1)\u2009=\u200917.58), all P-values\u2009&amp;lt;\u2009.05. Resilience tended to have a positive relationship with social wellbeing and negative relationship with moral injury, depression, and post-traumatic stress across models, including models that included various military stressors.
