A summary of an Army investigation says some soldiers with PTSD may not get the diagnoses they deserve -- but nobody in the Army did anything wrong.
Last year, after a soldier at the Army's Fort Carson in Colorado recorded his psychologist saying that there was pressure from above not to diagnose soldiers with post-traumatic stress disorder, the recording made its way to the U.S. Senate and to the secretary of the Army. On July 28, 2008, the Army finished an internal investigation -- and concluded it had done nothing wrong. The summary of the investigation is below. Read about the tape recording
