He was deployed for a year at the Syria/Iraq/Jordan border as a LAARNG member. I haven't probed much, but I do know that kids firing at him bothered him greatly and he had to fire back. He had an episode this morning where his wife heard him crying out to God and yelling get down they're firing at us.



When'd he get back? I deployed to Iraq and had nightmares for a good 6 months after I got back but was fine after that. One of my best friends was deployed at the same time with me and is messed up to this very day, drug/alcohol abuse and that was almost 20 years ago.

Everyone is different and agree with those that say he definitely needs therapy if this has been prolonged.
