I am struggling with him NEVER been treated for any problems in past but I guess it happened so something musta been there. Maybe time in military peace keeping over seas, maybe something with the stress of the job (but everyone loved him and working with him and he always had a smile) and between 700 - 750 people showed up for the funeral the chaplain said. Oh well. Here I sit, looking for more.

My sympathies go out to you Sad Sister. Although I have been fortunate enough that I haven't had to experienced the death of a loved one through suicide, I am in the law enforcement field. One thing about people in the law enforcement field is that they typically do not like to show weekness. Your brother may have been battling with some problems but it is likely he never told anyone or let on that there were any problems. There was nothing that you could have done to prevent this tragedy.
