Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said last week that the Pentagon has ordered all of the services to undertake reviews of their mental health diagnoses over the past decade. The Army had previously announced it was undertaking such a review. Panetta told a Senate panel that he is unsatisfied with the Pentagon’s current approach to combating military suicides and that the Defense Department will review its procedures for handling mental health cases.
