That is such a sad story about the WWII vet that you knew. Only he knew of the hardships that he had to endure during his life. My heart breaks for those that have had to live their life in silence because the outside world would not understand the atrocities that they have had to face. War is a horrible thing in this world destroys so many lives, and you are right about what Sheldon Holgreen said about while the Soldier is at war, America is at the mall. That is one of the main points in this film is that while the soldiers are fighting wars, they are often forgotten about, and when they come home, they may seem fine on the outside, they are still in torment from what they have been through. My hope was to bring awareness to the struggles that those suffering from Post Traumatic Stress go through and to let them know they are not alone and to inform the friends and family of those suffering what their loved ones may be experiencing so they can be a better support for them. Thank you for taking the time to watch the film and I am glad that you got something out of it.
