No More “Shell Shock”
The words shell shock were officially abolished in February owing to the bad effect they had. At the same time psychiatrists were placed in forward areas to deal with cases immediately and on the spot where the shell shock occurred. : As a result, during the battles of El Guettar and Maknassy, 68 per cent of the neuropsychiatrei cases were able t6 return to duty within 72 hours. Eighty-nine per cent of that group were carefully followed up and only 11 per cent of these were among subsequent casualties including killed and wounded, show-
