Dead Before Discharge

They never saw combat. But they came home wounded.Every year, thousands of veterans and service members die-not on the battlefield, but by their own hands. Dead Before Discharge is a brutally honest and deeply human exploration of military suicide, written for the ones who served, the ones who stayed, and the ones left behind.This book isn't filled with clinical jargon or empty slogans. It's raw. Real. Necessary. Page by page, it breaks the silence around trauma, toxic leadership, invisible wounds, and the crushing pressure to "stay strong" in a system that often punishes vulnerability.If you've ever served, known someone who has, or lost someone too soon, this book is for you.Because not every war ends overseas-and not every soldier makes it home in one piece.You're not broken. You're not alone. And you're not a burden.Stay.
