The Navy's top uniformed officer told a packed crowd of largely fellow Navy leaders and retired officers that one of the biggest problems that keeps him up at night is not Ukraine or Russia but the service's suicide problem.
"I think it's the same thing that keeps [the master chief petty officer of the Navy] awake at night: It's suicides," Adm. Michael Gilday, chief of naval operations, told an auditorium of more than a hundred people at the annual Surface Navy Association conference held in Arlington, Virginia.

Lt Col Charlie Brown This is so sad that so many of our members in uniform are committing suicide. We need to be worried about this.

Excellent post. Thank You for sharing this Colonel. Very serious subject. I knew two Specialists who committed suicide in 2012 when Our unit came back from Ghazni. They didn't show any signs either.
