There was one man who used to sit up at the bar on his own and rarely spoke. One night he told my husband and me that at 18yrs old he was in the group that drove through the gates of Auschwitz Concentration Camp as part of the liberation of the camp and he had never been able to forget the people that met them. It had been a continual nightmare for him.
How sad. Today they have a name for that--PTSD.
