Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)  is one of the severe emotional impacts a horrific war has on soldiers. One British veteran, who worked in war-torn Syria, credited a puppy for keeping him sane. Unfortunately, he was separated from the pup as he returned to the United Kingdom in April 2018.

Back in February 2018, following a four-month battle to liberate Raqqa from Isil, Sean Laidlaw, a bomb disposal expert from Hornchurch in Essex, was tasked to remove IEDs in Syria for the U.S. State Department.
