Army General Raymond Odierno, commander of joint forces in Iraq, estimates that 30% of all troops suffer from PTSD. Other military officials say it’s virtually impossible for anyone to emerge unscathed in some way from combat. What is more monolithic than the murderous methods of our adversaries is the incompetent, hostile reception our injured vets and families experience later. Tragic and indefensible.
