FULL DISCLOSURE: I am not a political ideologue or loyal to any political party: I am strictly a Veteran who cares about Veterans and their Families. I know there are some out there who may doubt my characterization of the Secretary of VA not having goals or metrics to prevent Veteran Suicides. Here is the excerpt from CSPAN coverage of the Joint Hearing
Secretary of VA Secretary Wilkie finally admits he doesn't have metrics or goals: https://www.c-span.org/video/?456085-1/veterans-affairs-secretary-wilkie-testifies-agencys-mission&start=7124
You will see me in the far right with my Veteran Identify Cap LOL. You noticed I quickly put of my reading glasses to write down what I heard. Secretary Wilkie at first says his goal is to do is best (really?).
