Army says no suicides in June, but suspect 9 may have?

Out of the possible 21 suicides the Army listed for May, 18 remain under investigation. 18 families wait to find out what happened to someone they loved. Two months? What would it be like for you if you had to wait to find out why someone you love is no longer here?

Last month the Army says there were no suicides but they suspect 9 may have been. That is just from the regular Army but then we have to add in the "reserves" with 5 "potential" suicides, one confirmed, leaving 4 families wondering what happened. For May, 2 confirmed suicides with 5 families still waiting for answers.

How is it they survived combat but couldn't survive out of it? How much money has been spent training them to fight? How much money has been spent claiming to stop these suicides? Put together, all the money in the world is not enough when they do not do what these soldiers need. Help them heal.
