Citizen Soldier: Why a 39-Year-Old Husband and Father Volunteered for Iraq (2003)

What does it feel like to volunteer for war — not as a young single soldier — but as a 39-year-old husband and father of three? In 2003, Major Robert Elliott made that choice. In this interview, we discuss his decision to leave home, the emotional cost on his family, and what he experienced during the Iraq War. His book, Citizen Soldier: From the Land of Lincoln to Iraq, tells the story — but this conversation reveals the heart behind it. An estimated 22 veterans die by suicide each day in the United States. If you’re a veteran in crisis, or know a veteran who is, call or text 988 and press 1. You are not alone.
