US Army Suicide At A Glance

by Christopher R. Albon on August 6, 2010

The Army has released its much anticipated report on suicides and it is a monster, both in the number of pages (350) and its heavily quantitative approach. Rather than a briefing written for easy comprehension by Congressional staffer, the report is a full-throated attempt by the Army to develop a comprehensive, theoretical understanding of suicides.
