The Annual Report of the Department of Defense Suicide Event Report (DoDSER) system
\npresents data on suicides and suicide attempts that occurred from January 1, 2014 through
\nDecember 31, 2014. The goal of the DoDSER program is to characterize and contextualize
\nsuicide-related events in a manner that is comprehensive and accurate, and which informs
\ndecision-making authorities about suicide prevention and intervention strategies.
\nThe DoDSER Annual Report comprises data from the Active and Reserve components of the Air
\nForce, Army, Marine Corps and Navy. This includes data from the Army National Guard and Air
\nNational Guard. Aggregated data for each Service are presented in their own chapter and are also
\nincluded in a summative chapter.
\nData for each DoDSER report were collected by the Services and augmented by data from the
\nArmed Forces Medical Examiner System (AFMES; for active duty suicide decedents) and the
\nDefense Manpower Data Center (DMDC; for suicide decedents and suicide attempts). All
\npersonally identifiable information in this report has been redacted for privacy reasons.<\/p>\n
