I think of the atrocities that our grandparents went through in WW II, didn't
speak to anyone of what they saw/felt, and buried all of that trauma inside.

Patriclk Stewart talks about his abusive father, working with battered shelters
in England, and looking into his father's history, finding out he was an MP at
Dunkirk. Boggles the mind what he'd gone through.

Things do change - traumatic brain injuries meant KIA in WW II, and a lengthy
convalescence now. And, from what I hear about the US Army, people are
engaging in multiple tours of duty, as military action has been pretty much
ongoing since 9/11/2001. More stress and more survivors isn't a good combo,
