TAMPA, Fla. — Commandos are taking their own lives at a record pace, said Adm. William McRaven, commander U.S. Special Operations Command, headquartered at MacDill Air Force Base, Fla.

Repeating a concern he first raised to Congress in February, McRaven told a symposium in Tampa on Thursday that helping commandos and their families is “my No. 1 priority.”
