Challenge: Blueberry Yoghurt #29 (the first time), Molasses #14 (prisoner of war), Fudge Ripple #26 (anguish)
Rating: PG for subject matter
Word count: 397
Summary: For some people, the Great War will never be over
Author's Note: From Wikipedia: "In World War I, shell shock was considered a psychiatric illness resulting from injury to the nerves during combat. The horrors of trench warfare meant that about 10% of the fighting soldiers were killed (compared to 4.5% during World War II) and the total proportion of troops who became casualties (killed or wounded) was 56%. (...) The large proportion of World War I veterans in the European population meant that the symptoms were common to the culture."
( Dee did not need to look at the date on today’s paper to know that the anniversary was approaching )
