Answer:

B. A “moral injury” is the struggle a soldier faces when grappling with the morality of what they have done in war.

Explanation:

Moral Injury is the wound a persons conscience suffers when he or she has done something which is offensive or contrary to his or her own moral codes and beliefs. This term is mostly used to describe the sufferings of war veterans, but is not limited in application to them, as civilians can also experience this.

After war, it has been noticed that soldiers sometimes recount their experiences. These experiences might sometimes include actions that resulted in deaths. War crimes might have been witnessed by these soldiers and their inability to intervene might also wound their consciences.

A resultant effect of this, could be mental health disorders, and in extreme cases, taking their lives.

Moral damage can be described as the struggle a soldier faces when fighting the morality of what he did in the war, as shown in option B.

We can arrive at this answer because:

  • Moral damage is the term used to show damage to an individual's moral concepts and beliefs.
  • This happens when an individual is forced to do something that is against his principles.
  • This type of damage also happens when someone disrespects the beliefs, principles, and values of another individual.

An example of this can be seen in soldiers sent to a war, where many believe they should help people in need, but they cannot help people in the enemy army, as they have to fight them and even kill them.

Moral damage can cause psychological damage and suffering and therefore must be avoided and treated.
