    Battle buddies vital in helping friends in need

    Battle buddies and family members back home suffer a sometimes crippling pain because of the desperate decision of a Soldier to commit suicide. "Most people who are suicidal don't want to die," said Maj. William Nicholas, an Orlando, Fla., native, who servers as the brigade chaplain for 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 4th Infantry Division, Multi-National Division – Baghdad. "They just need somebody to listen to them. A battle buddy is the key. Talking about it helps ease the pain, it gives the sense that somebody cares." (U.S. photo/Spc. Elvyn Nieves)
