The results of a study of the psychological consequences of the experience of combat-related traumatic stress in persons who participated in the combat in Afghanistan are presented. A group of Afghan veterans (n = 105) with no signs of organic brain lesion or other psychotic disorders who also had no serious wounds or physical trauma in their anamneses were studied using a structured clinical interview for DSM-III-R. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was found in 18 persons (17 percent); 65 veterans were classified as "normal," and the rest showed isolated signs of PTSD.
