The Department of Veterans Affairs released sobering new statistics today about veteran suicide rates in the United States. According to the VA, an average of 20 veterans died from suicide every day in 2014. The VA examined over 55 million veteran records from 1979 to 2014 from every state in the nation. The last time the VA conducted a study like this was in 2010, but that report included data from only 20 states.
