Morbidity of Vietnam veterans: suicide in Vietnam Veterans' children, supplementary report 1: a study of the health of Australia's Vietnam veteran community analyses suicide patterns among Vietnam veterans' children highlighting time trends, age and sex distribution, location and method of suicide. It is a supplementary report to Morbidity of Vietnam Veterans: Volume 3 Validation Study which recommended that suicide in veterans' children be further investigated and the result drawn to the attention of the Vietnam Veterans Counselling Service. This report extend the knowledge about the health of Vietnam veterans and their families.
In Morbidity of Vietnam Veterans: A Study of the Health of Australia’s Vietnam Veteran Community (DVA 1998) it was reported that children of Vietnam veterans had a substantially higher rate of suicide than that experienced by the general Australian community. This report was based on a self reported survey of 49,944 male veterans about their own and their children’s health. The elevated suicide rate in the veterans’ children was subsequently confirmed by the Validation Study (AIHW 1999) conducted by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW), which validated a range of reported conditions from the Morbidity Study (DVA 1998).
