does Combat losses constitute an army accident
Any situation that causes injury to active Army Personnel is considered an Army accident. Situations that cause damage to Army property are also Army accidents. There are exceptions that are not considered Army accidents that include combat losses and self inflicted injuries. An off-duty Soldier driving his personal vehicle is involved in an accident with a bus. The Soldier misses two days of work.
