When soldiers return from combat, it is our duty to acknowledge that they are not fighting machines but human beings that sometimes need our help to get back in everyday life. Your article reflects this in an honorable way. So whether it can be a virtual therapy or traditional talk therapy, we continuously must evaluate existing therapies and be open-minded for new ways of treatment as long as there is a possibility that it can help our soldiers. For their physical and mental health, no costs should be too high for any nation. Michael Klemm, Strausberg, Germany |
