Campbellsport, Wis. -- (CBS 58) For many, a cup of coffee provides the boost to get up and get going, but one veteran hopes to use it as fuel to start an important conversation about his fellow brothers and sisters in uniform who have died by suicide - an alarming trend that continues to rise throughout the country.
Pauleen Le takes us to the common ground that is operation coffee - a business started by Sam Floyd who is donating 10% of the proceeds from his coffee sales to organizations that help raise awareness of veteran suicides.
