      Families and communities -- the rest of us, in other words -- can play a role in helping to cut down on the epidemic of military suicides. Dr. Elspeth "Cam" Ritchie, a Battleland contributor and former top Army psychiatrist, and Dr. Margaret Harrell, a military personnel expert at the Center for a New American Security -- who recently co-wrote a study on the topic -- discuss steps the rest of us can take, with CNAS's John Nagl and your Battleland scribe.

      The military has long known that many troops won't take advantage of the roster of mental-health care options the military offers. That's because they fear the stigma it might generate could hurt their career prospects. Does that aversion contribute to the military's increased suicide rate?
