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.

One of the biggest problems with suicide is as a society we have let suicide be an acceptable option for dealing with problems. Telling someone that committing suicide only pushes the pain onto someone else and if you are military that makes you a blue falcon, well this talk is not acceptable. If you can get people to admit they have considered suicide, ask them what kept them from doing it. Afghanistan was rough but I would not do that to my parents.
