Consequently the will join the military(especially Army) of young generation is not spontaneous and if suicide had happened in military, there are amount of dispute has followed. Once suicide happened in military, families of victims are not willing to accept to the opinion of authority and disagree the result of investigation. If there were eminent evidence such as letters,memorandum, scribbling in scene, it can be more easier persuading families of decedent and solving the complicated controversies. However in terms of honor and money, it is not easy work to prove the death was suicide.
