Extract

Although by now many papers have been published on psychiatric cases occurring in the Forces in this war, few follow-up studies are available of cases discharged to civilian life. Lewis (1943) and Ferguson (1943) found that a considerable proportion of discharged psychiatric patients had required further medical treatment and had difficulty in resettling to work.
