PTSD Plus explores the lasting psychological, emotional, and physical wounds carried by veterans of the Vietnam War and beyond, revealing how trauma follows service members long after the battlefield fades from view. Blending historical context, firsthand interviews, and deeply personal reflections, Carl W. Mohler examines how inadequate preparation, political decisions, brutal training, and the realities of combat shaped an entire generation of soldiers who returned home carrying invisible injuries. The book connects the origins of modern PTSD understanding with real stories of Air Cavalry officers, infantrymen, and veterans whose lives were permanently altered by their experiences in Southeast Asia.More than a war memoir, this book is a compassionate study of how trauma evolves into PTSD, how it affects families and communities, and how healing is possible through awareness, treatment, and honest reflection. By tracing PTSD from ancient warfare to modern conflicts, Mohler shows that the struggle is timeless but so is the resilience of those who endure it. PTSD Plus is both a tribute to veterans and a vital guide for understanding the enduring impact of military service on the human mind and spirit.
