World War II Veteran and Former P.O.W. on the Experience of PTSD

"Although the war is long over, the experiences of war especially that P.O.W. (experience) still bother me very much at times. I have periods of nervousness and fear in which I am frightened and suspicious of almost everyone." -- World War II veteran of five European campaigns and former P.O.W., Eddie Livingston, in a letter he wrote to his wife, Helen, before they were married.
