22 veterans a day commit suicide, a rate more than double that of the general population. On August 22 join Buddy Check 22 to reach out and talk to a veteran

BUDDY CHECK 22 is a day to call a veteran that you know and check in on them to hopefully change the fact that 22 veterans a day commit suicide. The best part... You don't have to go ANYWHERE. Invite your friends, have them invite theirs, and be a part of something that may just save a life. It's 2 minutes out of your day, and every veteran deserves to know that we still care about them.

Just want to say thank you for this post and caring enough to acknowledge this tragic fact. If anyone knows what a corpsman is, I am one, and caring for my comrades is a huge part of my life. Too many of these military members suffer in silence (myself included) without the care or compassion they SO deserve.
