TRAGIC: New Pentagon Data Reveals The Number of Military Members Who Committed Suicide From Just July-September Soared
According to the latest data that was released by the Pentagon, over 150 members of the U.S. military took their own lives in the third quarter of 2021, which is astonishingly almost double the number of service members who have died from the coronavirus since the start of the pandemic.
The Pentagon report states that a total of 163 service members committed suicide between July and September 2021 – 70 of which were active service members, 56 were reserve members, and 37 were members of the national guard.
This was also around the time that Joe Biden was abandoning the US mission in Afghanistan.
This was a huge blow to the psyche of thousands of active duty military and the veterans who fought in the 20-year war.
