Sad news for our service members.
According to the Department of Defense 20 vets die everyday from suicide and that number continues to grow, despite our best efforts to stop them.
Former Commander Kim Olson says, "We must do more to make sure our vets have adequate mental health services that are easily accessible to them."
She says, "The stigma of mental illness is a big problem in the veteran community so that must also be addressed, in order to end this vicious cycle."
