What I have learned in my research is as noted in the article a preponderance of veteran suicides are Vietnam era veterans. Some who that I have spoken with have their bodies riddled with the diseases related to Agent Orange and their agony is partially their physical pain and problems and yet even deeper is the pain of having their family watch their suffering and debilitation. I do not have any answers just observations. I am the Service Officer and Chaplain in my Legion Post and do deal with veterans on a very regular basis.

A1C John Weiss because Vietnam Veterans have not been through enough? The horror of war, the agent orange, the napalm, and then coming home to an America that blamed the soldiers for the decisions of politicians. It is tragic.

This breaks my heart into. I can only pray. It hurts me so bad every time I hear this. It's like almost nobody that can do anything even cares at all.
