I have my own little theory, at least it plays out here maybe elsewhere. Injuries to Joes are mainly hearing loss from loud sharp noises & back injuries due to lumping loads. PTSD is only about 5% of injuries but gets all the media as vets (at least here) are committing suicide due to the lack of assistance. It's a terrible tragedy in anyones' language anywhere, so the dog whistle comes into play & a young bloke would most likely think twice about signing up. Just think! I could serve my country & end up coming home & ending up in a box. Noice
