Abstract
Vietnam era veterans who were originally part of a sample of 300, were surveyed in 1982 and again in 1989. There were significant increases in symptom scores in 5 of 20 questions for the combat veteran subgroup from 1982 to 1989. The avoidance group of symptoms had the highest scores in 1989. Combat veterans continued to be more symptomatic than their nonβcombat contemporaries. Vietnam veterans estimate of combat activity differed with the passage of time.
