Col. John Mosher, director of operations for the Maine Army National Guard, compares thoughts of suicide to a looming mountain.
“When you get to the top of that mountain, you get a new view on life,” he said. “But when you’re at the bottom, it looks insurmountable.”
To highlight suicide awareness among military members, Mosher is planning to literally climb a mountain. The 20-year guardsman will participate in the annual Mount Washington Road Race in New Hampshire beginning at 10 a.m. Saturday.
