To An Unnatural Event

Many war veterans are suffering today from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. PTSD is a new name for an old story... After the Civil War it was nostalgia, for WW I it was shell shock, in WW II and Korea it was called combat fatigue. No matter what the term, the symptoms are the same, and most veterans who suffer with it will only identify with another veteran who has had like experiences.

few humans ever experience

292,131 Americans died in WW II. 37.5% became serious emotional casualties. Most Korean war veterans still feel unacknowledged for their sacrifices, and many have been plagued with readjustment problems over the years. 25% of the 198,380 who were in combat suffer from emotional debilitation. Nearly 60% of all Vietnam veterans have persistent problems with emotional adjustment. Stress from Gulf War now surfacing according to the Veterans Administration. It is estimated that 250,000 veterans are homeless on any given night and twice that number experience homelessness over the course of the year. Those with PTSD are five times more likely to be unemployed than those without it and up to six times as likely to abuse drugs and alcohol.
