Journal of Traumatic Stress

The theme and publication schedule of the virtual issue, “Returning from the Warzone,” was chosen to coincide with the removal of combat troops from Iraq by the U.S. and to call attention to the issues that attend redeployment. Those who return from the warzone may leave the service and become veterans, or they may continue their military service. In either case, there are new challenges for these military personnel as well as families and friends, and there are new opportunities to intervene and study this process.
