FORT GORDON,Ga.—While the Army is fighting two wars overseas, they’re also fighting a rising number of suicides. This year is the highest number of reported cases since 1980, when the Army began keeping statistics.
Through the right training at all levels of command the Army is hoping to prevent soldiers from dying at their own hands. But there are still many reasons why some of our soldiers are killing themselves.
So how is the Army “fighting” to stop them? News 12 spoke with an Army chaplain at Fort Gordon who is all too familiar with the problem.
