Yes. Being a soldier shouldn't mean you suffer for the rest of your life to the point that you cannot really participate in life. Not all soldiers who wind up with PTSD have committed atrocities. You can be a medic and get PTSD. A translator. And so on. At the same time, some of those folks that do horrible things do not always wind up with PTSD. Not only that, but such things take a toll on society. Their families suffer - children, spouses, parents, siblings - and it is a drain on medical care. Why would we not make it so folks can lead a better life? I'm not even a supporter of much of what a military does. They war, and rarely do the rebuilding or giving back to the community outside of a PR stunt. (NASA gets a break here, they don't seem to be a warring segment). But that doesn't mean the little folks on the ground need to suffer for life. I don't think most folks are happy about the thing that gave them PTSD, but that's not what the drug does. (Side note: I've taken this particular drug). It simply makes it so you aren't caught up on it and can get back to living in the present. That thing stops eating your brain and linking that thing to more innocent things in every day life.
