My Dad was in the N.Z. Airforce and spent time fighting in England, before
being invalided home after suffering a duodenal ulcer...... yes, stress was a
very real issue for the forces, and they also suffered for years after the
war.  I personally do not believe that any nations benefits from war, but at
times there appears no alternative in the face of what appears a greater
evil.

In N.Z. we also have reprospective "wrongs" being compensated for, but it
seems to be never ending, with the same claims being made by each consecutive
generation.  It becomes very frustrating for the hoi polloi to see this
occuring, and we have a politician who has faced the issue, and says that we
need to allocate resources on a basis of need, and his ratings have tripled...
and you should see the government scrambling!
