National Geographic photojournalist David Guttenfelder partnered with the organization Mission 22 to
raise awareness on the suicide epidemic facing military veterans. Guttenfelder's experience covering conflict around the world has given him a unique perspective on the difficulties veterans face when they transition from the combat zone to domestic life. This illuminating project involved photographing the spaces where veterans committed suicide, and connecting with the loved ones they left behind. Through his work, Guttenfelder hopes to give a voice to those affected by veteran suicide.
