But I have to ask, if you don't mind sharing, how and why do you feel it messed up your son?

Ok, not from what he seen from the war. Rather what happened in his own damn unit. And unfortunately that is not the only one that had bad experience from their own over there. Somebody else we know (different unit) seen things that would not fly on american soil - again in his own unit. There is a lot looking away from the higher ups if it is convenient for them. Not going into any specifics though.
If he goes with complete unit he knows from over here, and they all go and stay together, then it is a whole different story.
Not trying to scare you - it was bad for us before he went, and worse after he started opening up after quite a while. After he came back and was save, unhurt (physically) and alive.
