Quality read that. Without sounding patronizing, that was a humbling and a reminder of the demons that can haunt soldiers long after the war is over.

I agree mate, PTSD is almost as big as a physical injury, we have no idea how bad it is as everyone suffers at different levels.

The killing I think I could do, it's the witnessing of your mates etc getting killed or injured I think would be the difficult part.
