i'm so sorry for the loss of your good friend, capp.  you're right...in so many words, he's at peace now...no more tormented soul. he sounds like he was an awesome man. i will pray for him, his family, his friend-capp.
i lost my best girlfriend this way...she had not served in the armed forces but she meant the world to me. i will never know all her torments to make her choose the only option she saw. it took me a while before i began healing from the loss of her so i can relate to your sadness.
sincerely, jan
