Good information about a field of study that is still pretty much new. With PTSD and suicides being so high right now in the military, it's good that somebody is studying PTSD, suicides, and police officers. We see in 20-30+ years what the military guy sees in one to two years, and since many officers are prior military, there could be some real problems in the future if their mental health isn't taken into consideration.
