All different subjects (different topics):
1. Vietnam syndrome=lack of confidence (or losing streak)
2. Exposure to napalm, nothing, doesn't apply to anything.
3. Post traumatic stress disorder was (or is) actions upon the human mind occurring AFTER the incident (or war in this case). A relatively new phrase taking hold on the American public after the Viet War in the late 1970s. Now it applies to EVERYTHING; car accidents, airplane accidents, earthquakes, etc.
4. Distrust of Viet Vets came from the My Lai massacre & photos of burning hootches; etc.
