Just like with Vietnam, they want to create the myth that everyone was afraid of being in the military so people won't support the military, and if you don't support the military, then you don't support the country, do you? Nice.
Trauma in war is real, but packaged and advertised as the universal experience makes for a nice sociological weapon, doesn't it?

Maybe that stuff about the VA hospital where patents feed rats and shoot up herion is true but it look like over the top propaganda to me.
