Notes: The regressions are Eq. 2 in the text, estimated by a probit. All regressions control for age in 1900. The sample consists of all veterans alive and on the pension rolls in 1900, with full information on dates of captivity and age in 1900. The table gives derivates. Standard errors are in parentheses.
