Suicide and drug overdoses at Fort Bragg

Suicide and drugs are taking the lives of Fort Bragg soldiers in Fayetteville at an alarming rate

In the first two years of the pandemic more soldiers from Fort Bragg died by suicide and from drug overdoses than in training or combat. WRAL Investigates producer Randall Kerr researched and produced a report on this topic along with reporter Cullen Browder. In this episode, Randall joins Amanda Lamb to talk about why this is happening and about possible solutions to prevent these deaths in the future.
