My condolences BaaG. I have finished the Eulogy for my Father & will deliver it tomorrow. Sadly, I have no answers to your questions but my Father grew up with a WW1 veteran who turned to the bottle & was mentally abusive to my Grandmother. My Dad turned that around & didn't carry on like that.
It's funny, my English Grandad, also a veteran, was the nicest, gentlest Man you could ever meet. Of course, the beast manifests itself differently for each individual. One can only wonder about the type of Men they were before they served.
Good luck with your research.
