In the 2013 survey of roughly 12,000 WWP alumni injured in Iraq and Afghanistan, PTSD, anxiety and depression were identified as the most common service-connected injuries and health problems; the fourth most commonly reported condition was "severe back, neck, or shoulder problems," in 57.4% of survey participants.
