In this episode, I have the honor of delving into the life and experiences of Scott DeLuzio, an Army veteran, dedicated veteran advocate, podcast host, and author. Scott's journey in the military is one of dedication and sacrifice, having served six years with the Army National Guard, including a deployment to Afghanistan in 2010. However, his story takes a deeply personal turn as he shares the profound loss of his younger brother, Steven, who was tragically killed in action during the same deployment. This devastating experience left Scott grappling with the complex challenges of combat, grief, and the transition back to civilian life. In the aftermath of his deployment, Scott observed that many veterans, like himself, were struggling to cope with their experiences and seeking unhealthy outlets. In response, he launched the "Drive On Podcast," a platform dedicated to connecting with both current and former service members. Through insightful interviews with veterans and civilians, Scott explores personal triumphs, life experiences, and emotional hardships, offering hope and strength to the military community. Scott's mission extends beyond the podcast, as he actively advocates for veterans' well-being and provides support to those who have served their country. Today, Scott resides in Surprise, Arizona, with his wife, Vicki DeLuzio, and their three children. Together, they form a strong support system for his ongoing efforts in making a positive impact on the lives of veterans and their families. Join me as we gain valuable insights from Scott DeLuzio's inspiring journey—a journey that transcends the military and serves as a testament to resilience, advocacy, and the enduring bond of the military community. Tune in for a deeply moving episode that sheds light on the challenges faced by veterans and the hope that can be found in sharing their stories.

“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” – Psalm 23:4 Scott Deluzio, an author, podcaster and Army veteran, having served six years with the Army National Guard, including a deployment to Afghanistan in 2010, struggled with coping with the stresses of combat, losing his younger brother who was killed in action on August 22, 2010, and adjusting back to civilian life. While he was exhibiting all the signs and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), he didn't want to admit it as he thought that would show weakness and defeat. Through the help of his wife and his therapist, he practiced prolonged exposure therapy, which became the foundation of his healing and helped him to re-integrate into everyday life. Today, through his “Drive On Podcast”, he interviews both veterans and civilians to discuss personal triumphs, life experiences, and emotional hardships with the goal of giving hope and strength to the military community.

Less than 1% of Americans serve in the U.S. military. That leaves 99% of Americans who will never understand the cost of serving their country, particularly during wartime. Scott shares his path to emotional freedom from the scars of war after deploying to Afghanistan with his brother, Steven. Rather than Scott celebrating homecoming with his brother, he accompanied Steven, killed in action, in a casket draped with the American flag.Although Scott was scheduled to return to Afghanistan two short weeks after his brother's funeral, the mayor of Connecticut declared that he would not return to duty with his National Guard unit in Afghanistan because the family should have to endure the potential of another loss. But there is so much more to Scott's story. Because coming home after being in a war, doesn't necessarily feel like you're home. Scott put his grief to the side and picked up anger, and over the years, his grief ate away the core of his very being. He became someone he didn't recognize. His drinking got out of control, along with his anger, and he realized he could no longer go it alone and sought support.Like many grievers and veterans, Scott thought he was doing okay after a couple of years of therapy and stopped going. However, a life-threatening event with his spouse would occur, and he would later find his old patterns resurfacing. He sought support again and learned that growth and healing are ongoing processes.Whether you've served in the military, know or love someone who is serving or has served, or not, please listen to Scott's story. It may help bring a deeper understanding of the scars and costs of war - and America's 1%.RESOURCES:Podcast | Drive On PodcastBook | Surviving Son: An Afghanistan War Veteran Reveals His Nightmare Of Becoming A Gold Star BrotherVeteran ResourcesCONNECT: InstagramFacebookTwitterThe real divide in the U.S. is that only one percent of us fight in war, and the rest don't understand the true cost of conflict. - an op-ed piece by "60 Minutes" producer Henry Schuster, Operation Proper Exit ______NEED HELP?National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 1-800-273-8255Crisis Text Line provides free, 24/7 support via text message.

He interviews veterans and civilians to discuss personal triumphs, life experiences, resources, and emotional hardships to give hope and strength to the military community. Scott lives in Surprise, Arizona, with his wife, Vicki DeLuzio, and their three children. Surviving Son is a compelling true story that provides the reader with an insight into the life of a combat infantryman who fought in Afghanistan at the same time as his younger brother, Steven, who was killed in action just miles away. Scott takes the reader on a journey through his upper-middle-class childhood to his call to service after 9/11. With college degrees and a bright future ahead of them, they left the safety of suburban life to fight on the front lines in Afghanistan. When Scott was asked why he would do this, he responded, “Why not me?” The story provides many details that give the reader a clear picture of what it was like to fight for their country in a hostile war zone. Scott explains with raw emotion how he learned of his brother's death, and minutes later, he was engaged in combat with the Taliban, the same group responsible for his brother's death. He vividly reveals how he continued to struggle with PTSD from the stresses of combat, the loss of his only sibling, and the transition to civilian life.

Before his deployment to Afghanistan, he was employed as an accountant at the CPA firm JH Cohn in Glastonbury. Steven belonged to the Co. A-3/172 Infantry 86th Infantry Brigade Combat Team (MTN) in Jericho, Vermont. This was Steven's second tour of duty as he was deployed in Ramadi, Iraq in 2006 earning the Combat Infantryman Badge, Army Commendation Medal, and the Navy Unit Citation from that deployment. For his service in Afghanistan, Steven was also awarded the Bronze Star, Purple Heart, NATO Ribbon, Combat Infantryman Badge and the Army Good Conduct Medal.

Scott writes about that experience, and more, in his book Surviving Son. He's also the host of the Drive On Podcast, and he joins us on this episode of PICK UP THE SIX Podcast.
Today, my guest is Scott DeLuzio. Scott is an Army veteran, having served six years with the Army National Guard, including a deployment to Afghanistan in 2010. Scott's brother, Steven, was also deployed to Afghanistan in 2010. Unfortunately, Steven was killed in action on August 22, 2010. After returning home, Scott struggled with coping with the stresses of combat, the loss of his younger brother, and adjusting back to civilian life. In the years following Scott's deployment, he noticed other veterans dealing with their struggles in unhealthy ways. Scott started his podcast, Drive On Podcast, to connect with current and prior service members. He interviews veterans and civilians to discuss personal triumphs, life experiences, and emotional hardships to give hope and strength to the military community. Scott lives in Surprise, Arizona, with his wife, Vicki DeLuzio, and their three children. Make sure you go to https://survivingsonbook.com/ to learn more about Scott's book and to connect with him.

Warriors, Fall In!Today, I am welcoming a special guest who is an Afghanistan Operation Enduring Freedom combat veteran. Like many of us, he experienced the tragedy of war, but also took on a tragedy within the ranks of his own family- His dear brother was killed in Afghanistan on the same deployment in 2010. Overcoming this heartbreak was one of our guest's greatest obstacles and today he is driven to reach back and help out our Veteran community with understanding resiliency to meet triumph. His vision is to teach our community of the positive options we have to thrive toward our life goals. I'd like to welcome, Scott DeLuzio, who is the author of “Surviving Son,” a book inspired by his brother, Steven's, honorable service and geared to help the Veteran Community cope with making sustainably better life choices.Scott DeLuzio's Website:https://survivingsonbook.comDrive On Podcast IG:https://www.instagram.com/driveonpodcast/Intro Music: Mournful Middle Eastern Duduk by iCentury (Downloaded from Envato with License)
