This book is to serve as a way to keep the book; Protecting the fox. Clear of lets say war, but to also give the readers an understanding of the life Johnston had lived before becoming the bodyguard. The book, as well as i can will go into horrifically gruesome detail of war and how the effects of images and scenes can cause an everlasting effect on a persons mind.
PTSD, is one of the major instigators of veteran suicide. In America alone, 20 Veterans a day commite suicide, whilst 200,000 end up homeless. Most soldiers, dont seek help as they are afraid of their own mind and scared to seek professional help. Its not about whats wrong with, but with what you've seen. I hope this book can help enlighten some with the horrors soldiers have to face on a daily basis (note the book is fictioned and what occurs here may not be what actually occurs over there).
