Wife came home today from work at VA today and told me at least 20 vets home from Iraq conflict committed suicide so far

Hi John,
Since you live in NJ, I am not surprised you are being fed another very old demo lie.

Here is one of hundreds of studies your wife may find interesting. I am not aware of any studies concerning comparative suicide rates in Iraq Vets.

I have not been able to connect with my VA buddy. His office in Washington says he is on leave.

I got his vacation home # today. There was no answer. I will keep trying.

I'd ask her for the names & places. Some Kerry fan is pulling her leg.
