to have something worth sharing.
David Meek is a retired U.S. Army Major, Afghanistan veteran, career educator, and author. His work brings together the lessons of military service, more than three decades in education, and a deeply held Christian faith.
Through Written Forward Media, David writes and speaks candidly about leadership, loss, accountability, and hope. His books preserve the stories of those who served alongside him and open a conversation about finding purpose after difficult chapters.
Whether he’s speaking to veterans, sitting with readers, or working with students, the message is the same: the past deserves honesty, but it doesn’t get the final word.
