He seems a lot happier, where that he's content to let go.

I think that's an important thing, is to be able to let go.

It was a traumatic time in his life.

He was a young man.

A lot of the guys, my father's friends, feel like

it was the prime time of their life that they were

fighting a war, and you have to let go of that pain,

and I think that with the VA, that he's been able to do that.

And it has unburdened him of some of that,

I wouldn't say guilt, but pain that he's had,

the trauma of it all.

So I think that he feels like

it's a lighter burden that he has now.

You know, it's just enjoying his family, just having fun,

watching his ballgames, playing pinochle, just enjoying life.

So I think he is happier, he seems happier.
