My first reaction after reading your question and looking at the picture of the obviously uncomfortable soldiers, was "geez, can't we even leave these guys alone to deal with their most private issues?"

Then I read the article. I was glad to hear about the success of the program. I think they were right to keep the first attempt private, because as they said, they didn't know how it would work. With two successful attempts, and the Army surgeon general approving it, I'm glad to hear the success is being publicized. I assume that all of the men who are identified gave permission to use their stories in hopes that it would help the program continue and help others like themselves.

Having know men who came back from war with nightmares for the rest of their lives, it was very good to know that some of these men are finding help.

Here's a good video on the program:
