""Torque &Trauma is a raw, unsparing memoir blending military life with PTSD and childhood trauma. Chad Calahan rejects easy healing narratives, showing the anger, setbacks, and grit required to move forward. His honesty gives men permission to speak-and proves healing is possible, but hard-earned"". - Gene Butcher ""A blunt, deeply personal memoir where Air Force veteran Chad Calahan examines how childhood trauma and PTSD shaped his life. Blending technical precision with emotional honesty, he exposes the cost of suppressed pain and offers a hard-earned path toward healing and resilience"". - Brian ""From the perspective of an Air Force Colonel's daughter, this book mirrors a household built on strength, silence, and duty. It challenges toxic military norms, redefining strength as vulnerability, and invites overdue conversations about mental health-reminding us that service, and care for each other, must continue long after the mission ends"". - Ginger Brandt ""If you've always been ""the strong one,"" Chad Calahan's memoir is for you. Blending flightline life with childhood trauma and PTSD, he delivers a gut-level, honest look at vulnerability as real strength. This is essential reading for veterans, service families, and anyone carrying invisible scars"". - John Thompson ""This memoir reveals the human weight behind Air Force discipline-fixing aircraft while quietly fixing yourself. Raw, emotional, and sometimes darkly funny, it's painfully relatable even for civilians. Honest, hopeful, and deeply moving, it reminds us every uniform hides unseen battles and real resilience"". - Israel W.
