  • Summary

  • Mark and Charles talk about Chapter 7 of their book, "Psychiatric Casualties," focusing on the military's strategy of purging weakness to avoid learning from war trauma. They discuss the historical context of trauma pension debates, the ineffectiveness of psychiatric screenings, and the ongoing struggle to recognize PTSD as legitimate suffering. The episode also highlights the military's reluctance to address mental health issues and the consequences of ignoring these critical lessons.
