I know next-to-nothing about how special forces/JSOC units are trained, but my notion is that post-military life is not high on the list of things they're trained for, and "PsyOps" or similar training (like anti-torture stuff) could actually work the opposite of what you're assuming, in terms of later onset of PTSD.

What works in the field won't always work in the living room.
