Just from the way it is worded, this looks as if it is a question from an exam paper or from a student's coursework. Therefore the answer below, whilst very well-meaning in its intent, really need not say: "With all due respect, you are not equipped to do so yourself, or you would not be asking this question." !!! <><><> Ensure that he gets professional help. PTS needs to be dealt with by professionals who understand how to handle traumatic memories. With all due respect, you are not equipped to do so yourself, or you would not be asking this question. If you are uncomfortable with the military resources, contact VVA or DAV for resources in your area.

What should you do if you suspect you may be suffering from post traumatic stress disorder after returning from a combat deployment?
You should discuss how you are feeling with a physician. Post Traumatic Stress Disorder is very serious. It can lead to the development of negative behaviors such as isolation, over consumption of alcohol, use of stress drugs, and abuse of prescription drugs. By consulting a physician they will be able to point you in the right direction of getting help from a professional.
How is PTSD diagnosed?
PTSD is typically diagnosed through a clinical interview where a mental health professional assesses an individual's symptoms, history of trauma exposure, and the impact of those symptoms on everyday life. The diagnosis follows criteria outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) which includes symptoms such as intrusive memories, avoidance, negative changes in mood and cognition, and arousal/reactivity. Other assessments and tools may also be used to confirm the diagnosis.

I thought I answered this question last month. It is very likely that the airman is suffering Post Traumatic Stress. Encourage him to speak with a counselor, either provided by the Air Force or in private practice. Hopefully the USAF handles these issues better than the Army. If you are in the guard, a private counselor is probably the best place to start, in terms of availability and convenience.
