Army neglecting traumatised soldiers

The Swedish armed forces are currently examining whether more soldiers returning from Afghanistan suffer from post-traumatic stress than assumed. The liberal daily Upsala Nya Tidning says the step is long overdue: "That many soldiers don't take up the armed forces' offers of assistance is no excuse for their not taking this responsibility seriously. If a soldier returns with an infected gunshot wound, he is not allowed to go home without being treated. But this is precisely what is happening with many soldiers who are in mental pain or having difficulties adjusting after their deployment in Afghanistan. The armed forces have promised that in future returning soldiers will be more thoroughly and effectively examined. Ten years after Swedish operations began in Afghanistan, this is a tardy awakening."
