EXCLUSIVE: U.S. ARMY MEDIC TALKS ABOUT HIS OWN BATTLE WITH PTSD


Pfc Jonathan Norrell, a U.S. Army medic, tells Kimberly Dozier of CBS News about the struggles he has had trying to get help for his own PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) and how our military mistreated him.

This is another gripping account of how our soldiers are coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan with PTSD and finding the U.S. military is not equipped to handle their mental health issues.

It is stories like this which the media should be reporting about instead of the silly and insignificant accounts of how Sarah Palin used the palm of her hand to write down crib notes when she was interviewed by a Tea Party officer even after she had been given the questions he was going to ask before the interview.
