This review is from: U.S. Army Combat Stress Control Handbook (Paperback)
I have this book and use it in my practice. The soldiers do well with the content and as a civilian social worker, working with soldiers, this book assists me with understanding the impact the war can have on our soldiers. I believe it is a great read for anyone who works with our returning soldiers, soldiers who are being deployed, family members, community members and really all of us. Maybe with books like this we will have a clearer and more compassionate understanding of the influence war can have on our soldiers and better assist them reintegrate into our communities.
