I am glad that your friend is back and in one piece. I hope we treat our veterans of this war better than the way our nation has treated vets from previous wars.
I was wondering.....do other countries like Iraq, Iran, and other battle hardened countries have soldiers who experience the same type of post war stress as the U.S.? I think our soldiers get it because the U.S. tends to be a more humanitarian, more peaceful, more "let's all just get along" kind of country. Whereas, men in Iraq and other countries of the like, have been at war their entire lives. They have more images of blood, gore, death, and poverty in the past 10 years than U.S. soldiers have seen in the past century. Just a thought.....
