It's a matter of getting the word out so others know about it. Wow, Sy Brenner's story is compelling. Thanks for sharing that link. I love that even at 92, he continues to tell his story to try to help others. Hats off to him.

Earlier this year I got to interview a World War II POW. When he was rescued from the Germans at the end of the war, he was told by his superiors to share nothing. To tell no one what had happened to him, and to just get on with his life. He tried for years, but struggled. Back then PTSD didn't have a name, but he had his nightmares nonetheless. Finally, he was forced to retire and deal with the demons. Now, in his 90s, he's doing okay, but mostly because he's on the talk circuit and goes to schools, etc, making presentations. It helps him to be able to talk about it, and he continues to do so. What bothers him nowadays are the current batch of men and women in the military with their multiple deployments. He cares about them deeply and is most concerned about what it's doing to them.
