Caskets

I see from various sources that the military is releasing some photos of the operations at Dover AFB.

I am reminded of a story I heard years ago about a guy who had been in the Air Force. He was trying to get the VA to accept a diagnosis of PTSD. The VA did not want to give him treatment and/or disability payments. The VA took the view that he could not conceivably have PTSD, since he had never even left CONUS during his two years in service. He had spent two years at the height of the Viet Nam War unloading caskets at Dover. I don’t recall how the case turned out. I have no problems believing that two years of that might do some damage.
