I experienced the atrocity bit when working with troops returning from Korea at Indian town Gap Military Reservation in 1952.. The camp was used to train and ship and also for repatriation. The troops who had been to Korea were only too eager to share what they had done. Unfortunately I was young and what I learned destroyed illusions forever for me about war. I had always thought American troops handed out Hershey Bars and were good soldiers. I won't go into detail but what a lot of troops with whom I was in contact told me was chilling. It was a form of braggadocio that they could relate such tales of horror.
