Much of what has been ascribed to PTSD is actually CTE from high explosive blast exposure. "Shell shock" turns out to be the shock of shells blowing up, or even being fired at the enemy. This is why reported "PTSD cases" among American forces fighting in Syria are concentrated among the artillery branch. If MacArthur can demonstrate the power to restore tau proteins to neural synapses, then the Department of Veterans Affairs has a billion-dollar contract for him.
