ARMY OF ONE - US Army specialist Timothy McClellan, born in 1982, from Hibbing, Minnesota, USA, with his family in Killeen, Texas, USA, September 2006, two weeks before his second tour in Iraq. He will be diagnosed with severe depression and PTSD upon his return. In "Army Of One," Swiss photojournalist Elisabeth Real tells the story of six American soldiers whose lives have been irreversibly altered by the war in Iraq. Five of the veterans have been officially diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). From 2006 to 2013, Elisabeth Real photographed and interviewed these young men and their loved ones, trying to find out what they have been going through and how, in turn, the consequences of their combat experiences have affected their families at home. (KEYSTONE/Elisabeth Real) ARMY OF ONE - US Army Specialist Timothy McClellan, geboren 1982, von Hibbing, Minnesota, USA, mit seiner Familie, in Killeen, Texas, USA, September 2006, zwei Wochen vor seinem zweiten Einsatz im Irak. Er wird nach seiner Rueckkehr mit schwerer Depression und PTSD diagnostiziert werden. In den Krieg ziehen, ist das eine - heimkehren und weiterleben etwas ganz Anderes: Die Schweizer Fotojournalistin Elisabeth Real (geboren 1979) hat in den Jahren 2006 bis 2012 in den USA den schwierigen Alltag von Veteranen des Irakkriegs fotografiert und die sechs jungen Maenner zu ihrem Leben nach dem Einsatz befragt. Army Of One - der Titel greift den früheren Slogan der amerikanischen Streitkraefte zur Rekrutierung der Soldaten auf - richtet den Fokus auf individuelle Geschichten von Soldaten, deren Leben durch den Einsatz irreversibel veraendert wurde: Die Soldaten haben Muehe, sich in ihrem Nachkriegsleben zurechtzufinden, und leiden unter PTSD - Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. Aus der Armee entlassen, sind zahllose Soldaten mit den Depressionen und Angstzustaenden, die nach schweren traumatischen Erlebnissen auftreten können, allein gelassen und ihre Angehoerigen ueberfordert.
