Did all his strange paranoid behaviors begin only after that brain injury or is there evidence of him being "different" before that also?

I assume he would've had to demonstrate a certain level of psychological health in order to join the military, but who knows what might have happened since then

Seems he joined the military after 9/11, so that tells me he was someone with fixed determination, which is admirable but perhaps also allows beliefs to get "stuck" to the point of becoming paranoid and obsessive.

I am in no way qualified to know, but am wondering.

I do think his serious head injury, plus what seems like very traumatic emotional experience while in combat, had severe effects on him. When we send young people off to war, we have to accept them back again, and it seems some are left floundering. imo

Book overview​

Sean DeBevoise learned early on growing up in New York State that he was bound to be a man of honor. Hunting in the Catskill Mountains with his father, Sean learned about nature, focus, and ultimately, survival. During high school, he was a wrestler, and that's when he met Rachel, the woman who would ultimately become his wife and be the centerpiece for an unconventional tale. After the attacks of 9/11, Sean knew that his only course of action was to serve his country. Joining the Marines, he found a mental and physical challenge that he planned to excel at. Although he sensed the behavior and many things said by fellow Marines to be disturbing, he willingly deployed to Iraq where he encountered a war-zone that would rip his body to shreds. Taking four bullets including one to the head, Sean's life would never be the same, but it was the fact that all of this was at the hand of friendly fire that would provide the most crippling mental damage. Sean DeBevoise was nearly killed by his own Marines, and for reasons that are boggling to the outside mind. Putting the pieces together still today, Sean has come to realize that a dangerous web was woven between the US Marines, a hunger for honor, and jealously that traced all the way back to his family at home. Sean killed insurgents on that fateful day when he was locked in a warehouse and left to die by his own men. Returning home, the nightmare seemed to become even more horrifying. Although he has worked tirelessly to recover the use of his body and to reclaim his life from those who did everything in their power to take it from him, he still grapples with a mysterious story that the US military doesn't want you to know. This is Sean's story, and it's being told for the first time with unflinching honesty.
