I am saying that people with similar backgrounds would not make a open sermon about his background. Sure he could snap even if he was not part of those events-that is my point. In my prior work we would run into subjects like this and in the process of a field interview we could tell that the person had not been part of the events that he was referring to. For example I am a former Viet Nam Marine and my question would be regarding units and events that he should know. In most cases they would come up with a response that Woody Allen would come up with. People that have experienced those types of issues, tend to keep them private.
