“leftist sources”
If the sources were wrong then why didn’t the Army/military refute them? They didn’t refute them because the “leftist sources,” as you call them, got them from the Army.
It is not the Army's responsibility to refute partial reports by leftist anti-military sources. Perhaps you should take it upon yourself to aquire some perspective on the things you have swallowed from the left by looking up the suicide statistics of the population at large. I'm always curious as to why people like you want to besmirch our military on a conservative site using CNN as a source. I'm sure you won't explain it, but I'm curious nonetheless....
