Can you learn to be cool under fire or is it something that comes naturally to some people and not at all to others?

Probably a bit of both. While experience does help, some people do seem to react better than others.
If we wanted to do something like that. I'd be inclined to do something similar to what you have, but maybe combine it with skills and the SAN rules. That is it starts at POWx5% and can be raised through experience like a skill, but can also take a hit when confronted with stuff that might shake you, even if you are a grizzled vet. So seeing 9 out of ten guys in your squad go down from a grenade might shake you up and keep you from advancing.
Something like this could simulate things like battle fatigue.
