When my grandfather returned home from the war, all he heard from his sisters and the ladies in his neighborhood was what a pain in the a-s rationing was, and how they missed his income, mixed, of course, with happiness that he was home.
Men are clueless about certain things (emotional needs, and other odd things that I just don't understand), while women are clueless about others (responsabilities in wartime, political philosophy, engineering, etc.). ;-)
This is a very sensitive area the Doc has inserted herself into. I'm sure the servicemen coming home will have/are having the same experience as my grandfather from the women in their life, but let them deal with it.

If you're referring to your grandfather returning home after World War II, I seriously doubt that comparison is anywhere near the truth.

It appears your grandfather was surrounded by a bunch of nitwits.
