    Army Virtue-Tweet Backfires: 1000s Expose 'Heartbreaking' Horrors Of War

    https://russia-insider.com/en/army-v...rs-war/ri27130

    while the collator might be Russian the contributions were american

    its a long article so ive picked out a small section

    “Someone I loved joined right out of high school even though I begged him not to. Few months after his deployment ended, we reconnected. One night, he told me he loved me and then shot himself in the head. If you’re gonna prey on kids for imperialism, at least treat their PTSD.

    A Russian news agency.
    I have no doubt that there are hordes of traumatised American vet(eran)s and many have been let down on their return to civilian life,but what about the mental effects on Russians who survived being used as cannon fodder in WWII, or the after effects on Russians who served in Afghanistan or how's about how the sunken Kursk submarine rescue panned out and how their relatives were treated or how Russians currently serving in Syria will be treated.
    Go to the former Soviet Union or Putin's modern Russia and see how all is well when the state controls the media and propaganda is delivered as the truth both at home and abroad.

    AFAIK Russia Insider is owned and operated by Americans, it has no links to the Kremlin

    Like heroes I'd imagine, they have done a fantastic job stopping ISIS, this is one of the reasons the (((media))) hates Putin and the Russians

    When I see Russia all I see are believers in the West.

    So answer the question ,does PTSD exist in Russian army combat veterans and how is it dealt with in Russia?
    Or do you just lick up whatever Moscow and the Kremlin send out into the Western world?

    War is hell, but necessary at times. An unfortunate truth.
