COVER STORY: In 2013, the U.S. Army Reserve recorded 57 suicides, the highest number since 2009. In 2014, the number dropped to 40. In 2015, 40 Soldiers have taken their life – 12 of those occurring in July. Jose Mojica put together a team to examine last year’s suicides to search for trends between 2013 and 2014. The team examined 15-6 investigations, police reports, witness depositions, suicide notes, medical records, and autopsy reports. (Graphic by Timothy L. Hale/U.S. Army Reserve Command)
