This is a very, very bizarre article...from the New York Times! If they put it behind a pay wall, there is a copied version elsewhere on the web, and I link to both.
The short story is that certain combat tactics used by US Marines against the Islamic State (IS, ISIS or ISIL) in the Middle East apparently led to severe brain injuries for the Marines involved. Murders, suicides and hallucinations are part of the picture. All the while the Pentagon denies everything, et cetera.
What stands out is that the problems seem "occult", almost like demonic possession. For some reason, many of the affected Marines experience hallucinations featuring ghostly entities...
Not sure what to make of this, tbh.
