Description

Invisible Scars provides the first extended exploration of Commonwealth Division psychiatry during the Korean War and the psychiatric-care systems in place for the thousands of soldiers who fought in that conflict. Fitzpatrick demonstrates that although Commonwealth forces were generally successful in returning psychologically traumatized servicemen to duty, they failed to compensate or support in a meaningful way veterans returning to civilian life. Moreover, ignorance at home contributed to widespread misunderstanding of their condition. This book offers an intimate look into the history of psychological trauma. In addition, it engages with current disability, pensions, and compensation issues that remain hotly contested. Review The ultimate value in Dr. Fitzpatrick’s study reaches well beyond its considerable historical significance… [Invisible Scars] acknowledges advances made in treating these men and women while reminding us that much has yet to be done. -- Russell W. Glenn, G2, U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command ― Canadian Military History, Vol 27, Issue 2 Review Invisible Scars is a groundbreaking account of the psychiatric treatment of Commonwealth Division soldiers during the Korean War. Clearly written and well researched, it adds significantly to our understanding of this conflict and what the soldiers endured. Author: Terry Copp, professor emeritus, History, Wilfrid Laurier University Book Description Invisible Scars explores the treatment of psychological casualties during the Korean War and the long-term repercussions for former soldiers living with trauma.
