It's rather difficult to find those sort of numbers for the general marine population, but thanks too the war in Iraq there are numbers avliable for the marines deployed there.
The death rate for marines, in active and reserve, in Iraq is 8.5 per 1,000.
To put that in perspective, that is about the same death rate as the entire civilian population of the US. In 2003 8.42 people per 1,000 people died. Of course that includes the elderly and such, who tend not to serve in the army. You would expect that young men and women, who make up most of the army, would have a lower death rate then the general population. I just wanted to give you an idea of a 'normal' death rate.

Well it depends on what type of job you do. There really is no percent becaust anything could happen at any time. Thanx

I think there is a 4 or 5 percent chance that a american marine will die.
