title: [Role of a military psychiatrist in Afghanistan].
abstract: Operational conditions expose soldiers to situations which are potentially traumatic on a psychological level. The specific and non specific psychological disorders which can result require relatively flexible treatment tools which can be adapted to the circumstances.As the first "link in the chain", the intervention of a psychiatrist in a theatre of operations enables the psychological care to begin at an early stage to be followed by long-term treatment when necessary. This article focuses on a mission in Afghanistan.
