Summary

While veterans only make up around seven percent of the population, they sadly account for almost a quarter of suicide deaths in the United States.

FOX's John Saucier speaks with Sam Floyd, Marine veteran and founder of 'Operation Coffee Roasters', about his struggle to find purpose after serving and his efforts to raise awareness to veteran suicide through his coffee business.
