I always think of my Uncle Bill that fought in Korea. He left a decent peaceful soul, came back an alcoholic, started drinking heavy when he got home. He didn't tell many stories, but was a highly decorated soldier and sqaud leader, lost all his men but two in one battle, seems he never got over it..
He shot himself in the late 70's, was found in his uniform....can't imagine what went through his head beside the bullet.
