What is in place regarding Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome? What types of employment is available for them? How comfortable could one be if some of them were policeman, prison guard, postal worker, nurse, teacher, soldier, ploitician,or doctor?
How would these soldiers react to a society that is ill-equiped for the emotional trauma experienced during their tour of duty?
How would a society well equip itself to deal with these matters?
What businesses wil be created as a result of well eqippng the society to deal with these soldiers and possibly their familes? In what ways would this be a profitible investment?

A very small percentage will have chronic Post-traumatic stress disorder. Their Service and the Veterans Administration both provide care for their mental and physical health. Most of these services are provided by the Federal government and therefore would be a poor choice to look for profit potential.

There was a time before Clinton, that soldiers and sailors were not allowed to come immediately home and were counciled before coming back into the civilian population, and so were their families!. These troops are still on kill mode and can be dangerous. The budget was cut for such care. It placed them and their families at risk. I am prior service and know it for a fact!
Right now, there is nothing in place to help them! Contact Congress at 1-877-851-6437 or 1-866-340-9281. American Legion and D.A.V would be willing to help in the effort!

You're starting off by making bullsh*t assumptions and meaningless postulations that don't hold water in the real world.
You're like that one person a week or so back who started off with "if music is the universal language...." Music is NOT any sort of universal langauge and starting off with that bullsh*t condition means any answer that they could arrive at would be bullsh*t.
When the troops come home, will there be jobs for them? Since the unemployment rate is at an almost alltime low, that's a pointless question. Same goes for the psych part....there is no shortage of psychiatric facilities here in the US, so postulating that there might be makes the question meaningless.
I'm sorry, but the rest of your question isn't worth answering.

A soldier should know that in the battle field he has to fight and fight. I do not understand the fuss you make in America about the life of a soldier. Before sending the marines, you were worried. You were trying to see whether some mercenary army form countries like Pakistan, India etc could be deputed to Iraq and Afghanistan. When they refused, you sent your army reluctantly. Now, you are afraid of the scenario when the soldiers come back from these places.

Our society is not only well equipped, but eager to have our soldiers home.
I don't care one jot what businesses could prosper from their misery. Most of these soldiers will go back to their old jobs or they will find new ones. Veterans get a preference in the job market in this country.
Those who need care will get it. We take care of our own.
