USMC combat vet of OIF here, and very much this. I now have my "ptsd" under control and it is mild compared to many of my buddies, but if there is one thing I can impart is that "ptsd" is simply too broad a term. Combat vets have different kinds of trauma, from tbi to various psychological ones and more, and grouping them all up does them all a disservice.
I have done quite a bit of thinking on the subject, and I think many of the approaches for both treatment and diagnosis are wrong, but thats a thesis paper for another time.
