AE3 Brandon Caserta was more than a sailor. He was a son, a friend, a protector, and a young man with a kind heart and a contagious smile who dreamed of serving his country honorably. On June 25, 2018, Brandon tragically lost his life while serving in the United States Navy at just 21 years old. His death devastated his family, friends, and all who knew and loved him. But Brandon’s story did not end that day. In the face of unimaginable grief, Brandon’s parents, Patrick and Teri Caserta, chose to fight for change so that no other military family would have to endure the same heartbreak. Their advocacy led to the passing of The Brandon Act, landmark legislation designed to help service members confidentially seek mental health support without fear of retaliation or stigma. Today, Brandon’s legacy continues to save lives, inspire hope, and bring awareness to the importance of mental health, compassion, accountability, and early intervention within the Armed Forces. Your donation in memory of AE3 Brandon Caserta helps support awareness efforts, outreach, education, remembrance events, and continued advocacy for service members, veterans, and military families struggling in silence. Together, we can honor Brandon’s life by helping others know they are not alone.💙 Honor • Respect • Patience • Kindness • Dignity
