IFhe had never been to combat I would agree. This however has all the looks of TBI

Must be something they are worried about, to have said “at risk”. Maybe he articulated thoughts of suicide and/or depression or the like.

Wish I didn’t ask. I hope they find him FAST. and ALIVE.

could just be drifting. I’ve known several schizophrenics who have done that.

Do we have any evidence of combat? Particularly anything that might have caused a brain injury?

Of course, my first question would be whether there was a source other than the wife.

article is very brief. we’re probably not being told a whole bunch.

But I think someone in charge somewhere is worried.

I’m skeptical. I would think a brain injury serious enough cause observable signs from a photograph would have been discovered at some point by a doctor, fellow marine, family etc. Someone around him would have noticed that something wasn’t right.
