How many abortions occured in the US, and how many people serve in America's military?

How many abortions occured in the US in a recent year (the most recent full year is 2005)?

How many people serve in America's military: this includes everyone; Navy, Army, Marines, and communications and intelligence (or any person who works indoors and are never on the "battlefield"), etc.?

These questions are unrelated.

Update:

    Active duty is 1,450,000. Including Reserve/Nat. Guard etc. I believe is 2,600,000. And FYI, you forgot to mention the Air Force and Coast Guard.

    Yeah I noticed the 'etc.' but you put it after you put the 'Communications and intel' thing so I assumed you meant 'etc.' for other jobs. About 80% of military jobs are non-combat related, and those guys who are in 'communications and intel' are part of the regular military, there wasn't really any point in saying 'and any person who works indoors and are never on the battlefield.'

    These are completely unrelated. Use a search engine. Really though, I feel as if you are trying to make a point about something. It's not working. Try again or leave your opinions about abortion to yourself. Women who want abortions will get them whether they are legal or not and the military will always be there. This isn't some great acid trip from the 60s. There is no future world peace.

    ~There is no way to know how many abortions were done at any year, legal or illegal.

    There is also no way to know just how many people are in the service either.

    Unless you're God, you have no idea.

    Okay, these questions are unrelated, so how in the he!! is it suppose to make sense? You don't make any sense!~

    definitely unrelated. look them up in a search engine. most abortions are not recorded because by law clinics do not have to report all cases.
