CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. – Sources from 1st Battalion 8th Marines say that a Marine claiming severe post-traumatic stress disorder, or PTSD, is being openly mocked by the Marine who is the leading cause of it.

Cpl. Donald Bogdan, a squad leader in Charlie Company, expressed both amazement and contempt about the claims of PTSD by Lance Cpl. Sean O'Connell, who is both Bogdan's assistant automatic rifleman and the frequent recipient of Bogdan's physical and psychological torture.

"Is that little bitch still saying he's got PTSD?" asked Bogdan, according to sources in second squad, after hearing O'Connell was making another attempt to see a military psychiatrist. "What a fucking boot! Nothing even happened in-country," he said, omitting multiple incidents in which he openly mocked, shunned, and physically assaulted O'Connell.

"I told him his PTSD is all bullshit, and if he claims it again the next time we have MCMAP [Marine Corps Martial Arts] I'm going to break his arm," Bogdan added.
