One of the most damaging consequences of a wartime experience is the formation of a wedge partitioning a person's emotions into discrete, isolated chambers. Men may still experience love after a war, but some permanently have lost the fullness of their innocence. Instead, these men tend to withdraw to a corner, like an abused child nervously fearing the next painful blow. They lose their unguarded openness to others, e
