(Disclaimer, traumatic content in post)
Yes. I've been only through bombing not in combat, yet I've never percieved the airplanes the same way again, it's what triggered my chronic anxiety. I have heard a military person once say, that when he found an empty house where muslim terrorists previously impaled and roasted a baby in a civilian Christian home, something in him cracked and he killed the terrorists without mercy, for him there was no capturing them alive only annihilate, and he admitted to it years later. Being through atrocities like this changes people in undescribable ways, and we can't even understand... Who knows how did the captors treat them... Not so long ago, i think Japanese soldiers did this in China, they would grasp the feet and dashed babies heads upon tree trunks. So it is not far fetched to think this was happening to their children...
