My sister just called me about 29 minutes ago,,
My nephew just took his life… he was a second year marine, was a crew chief flying one of the ospreys..
I have fond memories of him running traps and seining for minnows and crawdads.. was looking forward to him coming and running a few traps when he was on leave.
This hit pretty hard.
Depression is real, I had a very close battle with it a little while ago… NEVER EVER feel ashamed to get help,,, and no one should shame another when they feel there’s no other way out…
Please pray for my sister , my brother in law and my nephews brother…
I wish I had answers why this happened,,,

Among the most valued and loved men on earth, our vets and soldiers. They deal with things civilians can never understand....but we can still support and love them with all our strength.

Vets do a wonderful job helping other vets...if they can only catch that depression and offer their help in time.

I am so sorry.

I don't know what to say foxkidd44, that's terrible stuff. We are in an era of trial and testing.

What rank was your nephew?

Condolences foxkidd. Depression can be hidden well, sometimes not noticed until it’s too late.
God bless

Prayers for you and your family. Terrible to have to go through this.


57 years trapping. It's who I am. Every day is still as exciting as it was when I was a kid but a little more work.
