"No news is bad news" they say, but then again I don't think they were talking about this report. It seems that the US Army is on pace to break a record again. That record being for soldier suicides.
Soldier suicide count:
- March '09 = 13
- April '09 = 13
- May '09 = 17
- '09 = 82
- '08 = 133
Even if the suicides decrease to 10/mth, they are still going to pass the old record by 19. I think those troops are going to need a moral booster, possibly why The Colbert Report went to Iraq (and had the President video conference into the show)...
