Anytime you want to compare family histories on military combat, let me know.
I grew up listening to my father have nightmares almost every night, due to what he had seen and experienced.
But bogus studies and statistics do not help us move the discussion along.

You're so angry and combative. I couldn't remember what the number was. So I typed into Bing, "how many vets kill themselves a day". The first result was:
How many veterans kill themselves a day?
Every day about 22 veterans in the United States kill themselves, a rate that is about 20 percent higher than the Department of Veterans Affairs’ 2007 estimate, according to a two-year study by a VA researcher.

I wasn't trying to blast anyone with a specific number to prove some point. For the number of those who kill themselves isn't the point.
But you've made it clear. The number I presented is wrong. My entire point is refuted and debunked. No real truth or value. Let's just discard it. There is now nothing to see here. Let's move along with our regularly scheduled programming.
