This is an excellent article in the August 1 New York Times, about soldiers who commit suicide, and the factors behind it. I know Leif would have found it significant, but with him as with some of those profiled in this article, pride and a belief they should be stoic and "take like a man" probably kept them from being honest enough about their problems to get the kind of help they needed.
