As Jo said, you make it real rather than a description in a medical dictionary.

As both your and Crane prove you didn't have to be there to understand what this type of experience does to everyone. And, because we don't remember history, we seem to be seeing this all over again. A damn fine piece of writing. thanks...hfurnesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06696258127478731741noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921323834562941074.post-46463003014435915032008-01-19T20:14:00.000-06:002008-01-19T20:14:00.000-06:00I have a very soft spot in my heart for any active...I have a very soft spot in my heart for any active duty military men and women.

By the way, thanks for your service there!<BR/><BR/>Thank you Jo for your very kind although underserving words. Although I am a veteran of 'Desert Storm', I didn't see any action, yet I certainly sympathize with those that did.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13986014894382899336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921323834562941074.post-46207689277943623622008-01-18T15:42:00.000-06:002008-01-18T15:42:00.000-06:00Oh, you are an excellent writer!

It takes post-traumatic stress disorder out of the textbooks and political doublespeak and puts a human face on it, as it should be.

Honestly, I don't think you need the disclaimer. As a Vietnam vet, I didn't find it objectionable in any way. Sometimes understanding comes from sources we don't expect, I think. <BR/><BR/>Thanks...Bubbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01650967162729244014noreply@blogger.com
