The number of soldiers who committed suicide increased 15 % from 2005 to 2006, according to an Army report, cited by CNN.
In 2006, 101 soldiers committed suicide, up from 88 in 2005, according to Army statistics. That amounts to 17.3 per 100,000 soldiers in 2006 and 12.8 per 100,000 the previous year.
The Army has concluded the "main indicators" for the 2006 suicides were failed relationships, legal and financial problems and "occupational/operational" issues.
The "typical profile" of a soldier who commits suicide is a member of an infantry unit who kills himself with a firearm.
As of June 30, 2007, 44 soldiers had committed suicide, statistics showed. Of those, 17 were deployed away from their home base.
