| We’ve been at war for 10 years
|
| We have two and half million Americans who have served in these wars
|
| About One million of them are still in the military
|
| And million and a half of them are out of are out of the military and are now
|
| veterans
|
| We have 18 veterans who commit suicide every day in this country
|
| We haven’t asked people to go through war in this kind of way
|
| Probably since World War 2 and Vietnam people served one year tour
|
| And then they came home we had a draft
|
| And now we ask people to go again and again
|
| And so you have 1 million people who’ve been through the war’s who are still in
|
| the military
|
| You have 90, 000 people in Afghanistan fighting this war
|
| It’s not surprising that the suicide would be higher than the battle field
