    Army veteran Sgt. First Class Jimmy Novak is walking across the nation, 22 miles per day for 22 weeks to raise awareness of the nation’s 22 Veterans we lose, on average, to suicide each day. Sgt. 1st Class Baltazar Dacones, from the Idaho Army National Guard, heard about Novak’s story and wanted to help. Dacones reserved a room on base for Novak and provided him with food and toiletries for his stay. At the end of his journey, Novak will have walked for five months and more than 3,000 miles in support of suicide awareness in our veteran community. (U.S. Air National Guard photo by Master Sgt.
