How close is that to the obesity rate?

That statistic is barely higher than rate of being overweight in america in general with like 69% of americans being overweight or obese. I'd say it's probably higher due to the higher rate of mental illness is vets.

Higher, by enough of a margin to expect that there's something going on there, but it's not a massive difference. The increased incidence of mental illness and sudden, significant drop in physical activity levels after being discharged are probably enough to explain it.
