Army Is Worried by Rising Stress of Return Tours to Iraq - New York Times Army Is Worried by Rising Stress of Return Tours to IraqSure, there are serious mental health issues with the returning soldiers.
But there are plenty of physical health problems too. Many of these folks are not being killed on the field of battle when confronted with the bomb blasts. Their eyes, ears and brains (central processing) are gone.
These men and women won't be able to work again. The injuries are life changing, of course. The cost to the individuals is steep. The long term cost of the wars are high.
The United States needs to get out of Iraq and Afghanistan.
How this as about a Constitutional Amendment: US Soldiers should NEVER serve a second tour of duty.

John K. says: How about this for a constitutional ammendment. Stupid people should keep their constitutional ammendments to themselves. This way they can remain a fool in silence.
Remain in silence, a suggestion from John K. Humm....
The soldiers that I posted about are returning to the states and many are with their ears blown out -- and they will remain in silence. No hearing.
I'm worried about those who are going to remain in silence because of the war and the bomb blasts.
I'm also worried about the propensity for some to go to war and then name-call to naysayers.
