两年了在1月6日的袭击后美国国会大厦警官哈利·邓恩说，他仍在处理那天留下的情感创伤。
邓恩在数小时的暴力事件中努力捍卫国会大厦，他描述了自己的创伤后应激障碍是如何在去年秋天爆发的。
“那一刻给我的打击如此之大，是因为我已经取得了如此大的进步，能够以健康的方式治愈和处理这些情绪和感受，你知道，我可以走进去，看到有人戴着MAGA帽子或邦联旗帜也不会感到不安……我取得了很大的进步，”邓恩在接受美国广播公司首席司法记者皮埃尔·托马斯的采访时说，该采访于周日在“本周”播出
“但这一切就像突然从我身边消失了一样。也不是某个特定事件导致的。伙计，我以为我已经控制住局面了。我战胜了它，”他说。“但是不，它真的不知从哪里冒出来，把我击垮了，你知道它把我击垮了。”
根据美国国会大厦警察联盟最近的估计，当支持特朗普的暴徒袭击国会大厦时，华盛顿大都会警察局和国会大厦警察局的近140名警察受伤。
虽然邓恩说他的好日子比坏日子多，但他说起义从未远离他的脑海。他继续在国会大厦工作，坚持每天走过圆形大厅，惊叹它对他和这个国家的意义，铭记它所代表的一切可能在两年前被推翻。
周五，邓恩和同事们被授予总统公民勋章-美国第二高的平民荣誉-来自总统乔·拜登。
邓恩1月6日在众议院委员会作证时告诉托马斯，唐纳德·特朗普需要为此负责。
“我认为他应该为他那天的行为或不行为负责。…他需要被追究责任，这就是为什么现在所有的眼睛都盯着司法部，”他说。“因为他们是能够带来责任的人。…前总统做过一些犯罪的事情。我不明白你为什么不能让他为那天的事负责，”他说。
'It broke me': Capitol officer describes recurring trauma of Jan. 6 attack
Two years after the Jan. 6 attack, U.S. Capitol Police Officer Harry Dunn says he's still dealing with the emotional scars from that day.
Dunn, who struggled to defend the Capitol amid the hours of violence, described how his PTSD flared up this past fall.
"That moment in time hit me so hard is because I have made such good progress, to heal and be able to deal with these emotions and these feelings in a healthy manner and, you know, I could walk in and not be fazed by seeing somebody in a MAGA hat or a Confederate flag …. I made such good progress," Dunn said in an interview with ABC News Chief Justice Correspondent Pierre Thomas that aired Sunday on "This Week."
"But it was all just like out of nowhere just ripped away from me. And it wasn't a specific incident that caused it. Man, I thought I had this under control. I beat this," he said. "But no, it literally just came out of nowhere and it broke me, you know it broke me."
Nearly 140 officers from both the Washington's Metropolitan Police Department and the Capitol Police were injured when pro-Trump rioters stormed the Capitol, according to a recent estimate by the U.S. Capitol Police union.
While Dunn said he has more good days than bad, he said the insurrection is never far from his mind. He continues to work at the Capitol, making a point of walking through the Rotunda each day, marveling at all it means to him and the country, mindful that all it stood for could have been toppled two years ago.
On Friday, Dunn and fellow officers were awarded the Presidential Citizens Medal -- the nation's second-highest civilian honor -- from President Joe Biden.
Dunn, who testified before the House Jan. 6 committee, told Thomas that Donald Trump needs to be held responsible.
"I believe he should be held accountable for his actions or inactions of that day. … And he needs to be held accountable and that's why all eyes are on the Justice Department right now," he said. "Because they're the ones who can bring forth accountability. … There were criminal things that the former president has done. I don't see how you cannot hold him accountable for that day," he said.
