It began like any other conflict, with duty calling them to defend their homeland against the terrorists. The brave soldiers marched forth, their spirits high and their resolve unyielding. But war, with its merciless grasp, unleashed chaos and destruction, not only upon the land but also within the hearts of those who fought.

According to a report of colonel Lucian Tatsa-LaurHead Of The Health Department, Health Corps, ID, one in four soldiers used the army’s mental health services and met with either a psychiatrist or a mental health officer.“At least 1,000 of these soldiers have been diagnosed with acute stress disorders,” department head Colonel Lucian Tatsa-Laur told Israeli newspaper TheMarker.
