Well, duh.

The Fallujah ‘Marlboro Man’ has post-traumatic stress disorder. Well, fucking duh. You can’t have an iconic soldier with a world-weary steely-eyed glare without ending up with a psychologically traumatized civilian after his tour of duty. So just remember, people, for every manly dude that gets you all excited when you think about his patriotic service in the glorious theater of combat, there’s a kid whose dad gets jumpy at loud noises or a wife whose husband tightens his hands around her neck in his sleep.
