I personally know several Viet Nam veterans, and while one or two of them definitely did come home a bit changed by the experience, none were changed dramatically.
And most, one of whom I'm still quite friendly with, didn't seem to change at all.
I also know several veterans of WW II.
Although I obviously didn't know them before the war, so I can't judge the changes that they may have undergone, none of them seem "crazy" to me now.
A little old maybe..... 
[/b]Yes, that could be, but I guess it would be a different point of view if you had the chance to live with those people in a house. Of course, there are people who are stronger psichologicly than others, but you know, being in constant danger of being killed, bombs exploting around you, bullets above you, etc, I guess nobody is the same person. I still say a war is a war.
