First time I've seen the "visitor messages" section- thanks for giving me visibility to this.
My Dad's uncle, now deceased, was well-adjusted and had a great life after the war. My Dad relayed stories to me (he was very close with his uncle) about his experiences. They included night attacks by the Japanese and even instances where they had infiltrated and killed a few guys in thier sleep. Of course, it goes without saying that he had difficulty sleeping, nightmares, etc. He was a good family man, active in the community and VFW. He always had a joke to tell; which, I wonder sometimes whether than was a defense against the things he saw. I suspect, though, that he just wanted to live life to the fullest.
