"They come back and civilian life is pale. The 'other reality' was so strong. They always say "you all just can't understand". I don't think we can."

I think a LOT of soldiers feel similar. They train their whole lives for something that most of us hope will NEVER happen. When they get a war, they don't want to let go of it. Who knows when they'll get another?

Which is why Bush is an idiot for letting "the generals" decide how long we flog it in Iraq.
