War stress stays after 7 decades

OTTAWA -- He is now 86, but the "invisible wounds" of war remain.

Jerome Jodoin returned from the Second World War with nightmares, irrepressible tears and profound sadness.

Nearly seven decades later, the symptoms are still there.

"All kinds of crazy stuff is in your head. You see the bodies floating in the water and that kind of stuff," he said. "It's very hard for anyone who hasn't been there to realize how serious it is. And you've got it for life."
