I agree, they need to assertain that potential recruits *don't* have
PTSD before they join up. PTSD is a wrought amongst the military here
in Australia.

And don't get me started about the ****ing "Vietnam veterans".

The ****ing blanket counters, tucker ****ers, ginger beers, fang
farriers, spanner ******s, drop shorts, truckers, et al, that did a
tour over there and are now set up for life because they're "Vietnam
Veterans" and are all suffering from PTSD from their traumatic
experience....... I consider them low lifes. No better than dole
bludgers.

My local RSL is riddled with the parasitic ****s.
