Answer 1

Many American soldiers suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder. The Vietnam War exposed soldiers to intense combat situations, extreme violence, and difficult living conditions, leading to long-lasting mental health issues such as PTSD. This had a profound impact on their physical and emotional well-being, as well as their ability to reintegrate into civilian life after returning home from the war.
