PTSD - it’s where the money is.

I've never served in,or near,combat so I can't speak from personal experience.However,my sister-in-law's father was a WWII vet and he had it.She didn't tell me,at least,the stories until after both he and her mother died.Nightmares...crying spells...fears.He was a great guy and managed to make a good living for his family but he did suffer...both in Europe and after he got home.

Do some guys try to scam the system? Probably.But if you're trying to claim that all such claims are phony I'll have you talk to my s-i-l.

Just sayin....

Only if you are willing to lie. My husband has PTSD. I am fully educated in the subject. Are you? I would rather that they actually freaking helped him then throw money at it! Vietnam Vets can't get 100 percent unless they embellish.

I would trade every dime if he could have not suffered for 40 plus years. What a jerky remark!
