Abstract
ABSTRACTThe increase in service member and veteran suicides in the military has garnered considerable attention over the past decade, especially once the rate of military members surpassed that of demographically matched civilians. Dr. Peter J. N. Linnerooth, a former Army and Department of Veterans Affairs psychologist, was concerned about service member and veteran suicide and wrote this article before his own tragic suicide in 2013. In honor of Dr. Linnerooth's memory, this article was updated by former friends, colleagues, and peers to review in detail the problem of suicide in the military including issues related to epidemiology, assessment, treatment, and potential causal factors.
