What are the most common amputations that are performed on soldiers?

Extremities: Lower leg amputations used to be the most common. As gun shot wounds, land mines and other explosive devices have gained in lethality, higher amputations have become more common. Upper extremity injuries can also lead to amputation, and these too have increased with the size of IED's. The preparedness of our military health care means more veterans are surviving, and more amputations are necessary
