Combat Medic Book Description
"A significant number of veterans suffer from Posttraumatic Stress Disorder-an issue that arises after exposed to distressing incidents or environments, in this case war. The term comes across as a bit nebulous for most of us when seeing it on the news, however, Samuel's account of PTSD helps to put things in perspective." - Seth Rose, masculinebooks.com This is a true story of a soldier's journey through the Iraq war and his relentless battle with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Private Boney joined the U.S. Army in 2003. After basic and advanced medical training, he was deployed to Irtaq with the 1st Calvary Divisions 15th Forward Support Battalion in Operation Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom. Follow along as he recalls his experience as a combat medic surviving mortar attacks, assisting casualties, and a gruesome gorilla warfare fight in the Wadi-Us-Salaam cemetery; the largest in the world.
