Is the US military stretched too thin?

Twenty-two veterans commit suicide every day. It's the equivalent of an entire high school classroom dropping dead, every single day. Our military is stretched too thin, and it's evident from our inability to take care of the mental health of our returning soldiers. When I returned from my second deployment (16 months), I rushed through a mental health questionnaire, on which I absolutely lied on every question, and ran to see my family. Why?
