Abstract
This brief report summarizes the first available findings on long-term traumatic stress syndromes among ex-servicemen who are veterans of th e Falklands War. The results reveal a correlation between physical inj ury during the War and posttraumatic stress disorder, indicating the n eed for a long-term follow-up survey incorporating treatment evaluatio ns and welfare rights.
