Some truth:

In what Aussie Bob says:

However, we are all different, and scenarios are different, Ambo drivers on the front line see all sorts of stuff, and they deal with it amongst themselves, as do the military:

However, even seasoned Ambos, and seasoned battle experienced soldiers have and will continue to crack up, in most cases it is when the event has become personal, eg: the Ambo knows the little kid from next door, he is picking up in bits, the soldier all of a sudden has an enemy that has taken an personal & individual interest in "Him" has him targeted:

If this fellow has had a significant trauma, my advice is to go and see a military trauma specialist, dont bother with the civies, they are ill equipped to deal with such:

If he is an "EMOTIONAL" mess, dont let him get back in the machine, ask him for his licenses, you will be doing him a huge favor, but go the distance and let him talk:

He will end up solving the issue himself:

If he does nothing it can manifest in years down the track:

All the best:
