Anon,
Here is an case report that says sleep complaints are an essential component of the constellation of symptoms that make up posttraumatic stress disorder:

Here's an article from the Denver Veterans Affairs Medical Center:
http://www.websciences.org/cftemplate/NAPS/archives/indiv.cfm?ID=19960171
It also refers to this study, which a library could help you find:
Woodward, S.H. (1993) Sleep disturbances in posttraumatic stress disorder. PTSD Research Quarterly, 4: 5-7.
This New York Times article links the two near the bottom of the article:
http://health.nytimes.com/health/guides/disease/post-traumatic-stress-disorder/risk-factors.html
Here's the abstract of an article in the American Journal of Psychiatry. You can get the full text but you must register and purchase it:
http://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/cgi/content/abstract/152/1/110
And here's an abstract on a National Library of Medicine article:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17854251
Does this information help?
