I watched a doco recently on the Battle of the Bulge, and something I found quite telling was that many who fought there found they had to move States after the war, because they suffered terrible flashbacks at the sight of snow. Adding to the misery of that battle was the fact they had not been issued their winter clothing, and one guy being interviewed said he moved to Florida specifically to avoid feeling cold again for the rest of his life. It made me think perhaps I should complain a bit less about the winter here!
