UPDATE (via @chaiguy 14:57 PDT): I called the Washoe County Sheriff and was told they do not release suicide information but they did give me the number of the Medical Examiner's office who confirmed it: 36 year old suicide, from Gerlach, last night, positive identification from numerous sources in wallet and an on scene friend identification. They also gave me his name.

He didnt serve in the armed forces. He just went to Iraq and Afganistan as a reporter and a contractor.
