Can servicemen and women obtain life insurance? Does life insurance cover overseas deployments? Is military service a disqualifying condition? Interesting question.
While the exact level of exclusion will depend on the policy, typical exclusions are suicide, death while in the commission of a felony and death that occurs as a result of an act of war. Exceptions, by express language or statute can soften the exclusion to not exclude deaths due to diseases or accidents which are common to the civilian population and are not attributable to special hazards to which a person serving in such forces or units is exposed in the line of duty. It will depend on how the policy is written and the laws in effect where the policy was issued.
