has
completed
his

“A
Broken

of
a

a
potent
story
that
follows
a
former
Marine
who,
after
suffering
from
PTSD
and
addiction,
loses
everything
important
in

life.
But
through
finding
help
in
his
mental
struggles,
he
discovers
a
new
calling
of
helping
fellow
veterans
enduring
the
same
trials.

“David,
a
US
Marine
struggling
with
PTSD
from
multiple
tours
in
various
combat
zones,
is
trying
to
navigate
life,”
writes
Cook.
“He
believes
he
is
the
only
person
dealing
with
the
thoughts
and
feelings
he
experiences.
His
life
becomes
a
roller-coaster
ride
as
he
loses
his
family
and
battles
his
own
mind.
After
turning
to
drugs
and
alcohol
and
experiencing
his
wife
leaving
him,
along
with
attempting
suicide,
he
realizes
he
needs
help.
However,
finding
the
help
he
needs
proves
challenging.
Eventually,
David
finds
the
assistance
he
requires.
With
the
support
he
receives,
he
learns
to
help
other
veterans
who
were
once
lost,
just
as
he
once
was.”
