This is good for a giggle. Read the other "Headlines" too.

I also like the taliban story.

I've heard stories related to retired helo pilots, while playing with kiddie walkie talkie headsets having open eye nightmares, as they suddenly find themselves reliving Viet Nam era crashes they experienced while in the military. Therefore, the drone pilot possibly did have a flashback, with a handheld "push to talk" button from the 2 way actually being the incident "trigger".

Err, Richard, you do realise the article is satirical, don't you?

[emtdennis]

Yeah but it was fun to read.

Is this like "The Onion"?

While this string started out as satyrical, there are incidents of PTSD as I've described. I witnessed one, actually.
