    Agreed. This is just so sad, and such a terrible thing to read about on an Independence Day weekend. We need to do a better job of taking care of our returning veterans.

  3. What the hell is wrong with the current administration that this sort of this is not only possible, but that its been happening so damn much!
    Its an utterly tragic waste of a life that should have been appreciated better!
