Description 12 pages : digital, PDF file, illustrations Series Policy brief Policy brief (Center for a New American Security) Summary "This policy brief has four objectives. First, it examines the phenomenon of suicide within the U.S. military community, including both the frequency of suicide and the extent to which suicide is related to military service. It outlines steps taken by the Department of Defense (DOD), the armed services and the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) to reduce suicide in the armed forces and among veterans. It then identifies obstacles to reducing suicides further and makes recommendations to address each of those obstacles."--Page [1] Notes Title from PDF title page (viewed on November 1, 2011) "June 2010."
