      Yeah, all of these guys have. From my experience, the ones that can still smile afterwards are the ones who are able to successfully compartmentalize their wartime selves from their ordinary life selves.

          My Gramps had a real problem with that and he dealt with it by not talking much at all. That is not a good strategy.
