Martinalia is a Substack-style newsletter by a former soldier and author writing about military service, veterans' issues and early Christian attitudes to soldiering. Issues mix close reading of scripture and church history with commentary on peace activism, veterans' rights and the author's publishing experiments.
Personal essays by David Madden, a former Navy SEAL and father, covering psychological habits like fighting reality, the cognitive case for paper books over e-readers, and honesty about military identity after leaving service. The writing is reflective and candid, mixing memoir with broader cultural observations.
This newsletter summarises findings from the fourth phase of the KCMHR cohort study of UK Armed Forces personnel, with each issue focusing on one Royal British Legion-funded topic such as intimate partner violence, help-seeking and gambling. Readers get prevalence figures, risk factors and links to fuller reports on veterans' health and wellbeing.
