Synopsis "War Damage: Bringing the Battle Home: Helping Vets Cope with the Painful Legacy of Combat Survival Skills (in English)"
"WAR DAMAGE: Bringing the Battle Home" addresses the invisible but real threat military combat veterans face when they return home. Surviving combat and military duty in an active war zone leaves emotional war damage. Physical injuries from combat are obvious, easy to understand with readily accepted treatment. Unfortunately, psychological damage is frequently misunderstood, and treatment is either delayed or deemed unnecessary until a veteran's civilian crisis arises back home. Dr. Ted D. Kilpatrick, a former Navy Medical Service Corps Officer, served as Division Psychologist for the Third Marine Division on the front lines in South Vietnam. He endured mortar and infiltration attacks on the remote field hospital, helped carry dozens of dead Marines off rescue helicopters as well as having to work with approximately 900 emotionally distressed casualties. After thirteen months of this daily pressure, Kilpatrick became another victim of severe war damage, that took years to understand and accept. Yet, forty-five years later, his heart can still race at strange sounds or unknown threats, and he must lock every door and window at night to feel safe. He says his peace "comes from a gentle wife and bonded dog at his side." Dr. Ted D. Kilpatrick shares his story to expose the real threat of psychological war damage. He hopes this book will help combat veterans and their families understand this invisible danger that occurs during times of military conflict.
