Could it get any dumber than this?
A group of American soldiers sent home from Iraq suffering stress are complaining after they were given housing next to a firing range.
Two dozen soldiers diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) believe the constant gunfire from the range located beside their transitional housing on the US army base, Fort Benning is aggravating their condition.The wounded curl up and cringe or suffer anxiety attacks as the daily cascade of noise generated by assault rifles, pistols and machine guns echoes through their living area.
Sergeant Jonathan Strickland, a soldier at the base, told the Washington Post that the sounds have increased flashbacks and other memories of his last horrific tour of duty in Iraq.
