Might be interesting for one or the other.
Certainly not for people with ratings higher 1 in Tolkien-Lore

My father remembers soldiers affected by shell shock/PTSD living as tramps in the fields of Essex in the early 1950's. My maternal Grandfather was an Infantryman in Burma and was shot twice by the Japanese; my Aunt recalls that he came back with an awful temper. The bottom line was that for most men there was no support and you simply had to get on with it.Majestic wrote:It does. It makes me wonder, with PTSD being so common among modern soldiers, if it wasn't actually just less reported or undiagnosed back then. Certainly some were "shell-shocked", but I imagine the amount of Shadow some gained just seeing such horrors would have left a mark.
