Only on News 19: Turning pain into purpose one veteran at a time
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WHNT) — One letter forever changed Justin Carter and his family's lives. Carter, a 22-year Army veteran, lost his brother-in-law, John Cloyd, to suicide after Cloyd's service in the Marines. Pathway of Madison Co. still fighting for its business license after public hearing 'With John having to travel so much, he spent an unholy amount of time in his vehicle,' Carter said. 'So, I went through it, and it was a scene that you could imagine from that kind of situation. Glass was everywhere. There was bodily fluids and blood everywhere. There was a letter from him, to him from the Veterans Affairs, with his appeal denial.' Cloyd was seeking service-connected VA benefits for depression following his service. His initial VA claim was denied, so he appealed. That appeal was also denied. Cloyd took his life shortly after receiving the letter stating his second denial, leaving his wife and two kids behind on Christmas. That was the letter Carter found covered in blood in Cloyd's car. How is our driving? City of Athens seeking input for new transportation safety plan 'It was hard to take because it's somebody who was screaming for help, and that help wasn't given,' Carter said. 'We've been around suicides before, and I've never had one hit so close to home.' After seeing the people he loves shatter after Cloyd's death, Carter felt called to create change in life after service and do what he could to ensure no other veteran feels the way Cloyd did. Carter then created a new non-profit: Rally Point at the Summit. The name has roots in military practices. 'Rally point is a military term for a place we all meet up,' Carter said. 'We regroup, assess our injuries, and come up with a plan to move forward. The summit is the top. A lot of people are extremely good, especially military folks, at hiding what they're feeling. You're not doing this alone. We're going to be there with you, and we're going to help you as much as we can.' The new non-profit aims to help veterans in a variety of ways, from free assistance with VA benefits applications to eventually being able to provide some financial support for vets who need it. What sets the organization apart is its focus on conquering outdoor challenges and forming camaraderie and companionship while they do it. 'To get the guys out there and take them to places that are challenging,' Carter said. 'You're in our hands. We've got you. And to feel that connection, you know, and to say you're not alone, no matter how challenging it is.' Carter is doing all of this in the name of Cloyd, saying he will play his part in making sure no one feels alone and paralyzed by circumstance. Carter is awaiting the 501c3 official approval, but is accepting donations to build up his organization through GoFundMe. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Mid-June harvest expected for area
Jun. 6—PAWNEE COUNTY — Barring additional moisture, area wheat stands are approaching what is expected to be a mid-June start to harvest. Kim Barnes, of Pawnee County Co-op Association in Larned, said this week that if the weather cooperates, harvest could begin by June 15 in the county. "My prediction was around June 15, but that really depends upon the weather," Barnes said. "The recent rain really did help to boost expected yields by about 10 bushels per acre. But what we really need is a succession of really warm days to get things dried out." Others weren't as optimistic, but were leaning toward getting started by the first week in July. "If we get more rain, and it is kind of looking like we will, we could be looking at cutting wheat on the July 4 holiday," noted local Pawnee County farmer, realtor and appraiser Tyson Steffen. "We've done that plenty of times before." Results from May's 2025 Kansas Wheat tour sponsored by the Kansas Wheat Quality Council predicted that the winter wheat crop statewide yield could surpass 345 million bushels, up from 307.5 million bushels harvest in 2024. Average yield for the state was estimated at 50 bushels per acre, with higher yields in the eastern part of the state and areas receiving more rain, with lower averages expected in western portions still feeling the effects of multi-year drought. Fall planting was a mixed bag, with some producers dusting in their crops. Others got moisture for planting and setting root structure in November, but then the water tap shut off until April. With rains in late spring, nearly half the Kansas harvest is being considered in good-to-excellent condition, with only 7% receiving the lowest very poor rating. In May, the crop production report released by USDA-NASS was somewhat positive, with an increase of about 2% in total production over last year. As is expected, the crop is variable in terms of crop conditions and disease and pest pressures. Wheat Streak Mosaic Virus is being reported in Kansas stands.
