I was in a hospital many years ago with a World War I vet, and every night he woke up screaming that they were coming through the ceiling at him. So I've had some exposure to that. The stress of getting shot at, and so on, is obvious.
We had a lot of people in Bosnia and places like that who were constrained by the rules of engagement from actually engaging in proactive defence. They were forced to stand by and watch atrocities take place without taking action. I believe a lot of the stress injuries or the PTSD that came out of Bosnia or places like that were probably exacerbated by their helplessness at seeing things happen.
How would you assess that generation of PTSD versus that from pure combat, where they're involved face to face with the enemy?
