During the 1970s, psychiatric professionals were seeing a high number of people who had served in Vietnam and struggled to understand why.  In 1980, the American Psychiatric Association concluded that those who had served in Vietnam were suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).  Subsequently, PTSD was classified as a disability and eligibility for compensation from Veterans Administration.  That opened the flood gates and thousands of Vietnam vets, many of them Cat IVs with pre-existing mental problems, poured through to file claims with VA and receive compensation for PTSD.  Taxpayers are paying dearly for a failed social experiment called Project One Hundred Thousand.  We should not have to do it again for another social experiment of allowing people with a mental disorder known as “gender dysphoria,” previously known as “gender identity disorder,” to serve in the military. The end.
