On the Senate side, three incoming members (two of whom are currently serving in the House) are serving or have served in the military â Tom Cotton of Arkansas, Gary Peters of Michigan and Joni Ernst of Iowa.

That means less than 18 percent of the new congressional delegation served in the armed forces. (Note: This number includes one non-voting delegate from the Northern Marianas.).
