For myself I firmly believe that some of the PTSD is a direct result on the feelings of being powerless and defenseless due to the Rules of Engagement and the general unwillingness of some commands to treat troops as adults that can be trusted with rounds...

I think it raises the overall level of anxiety and when situations happen and you have squat to react with it builds stress... Repeating situations in this circumstance I believe accounts for some of the PTSD.
