Shell shock, battle fatigue, post traumatic stress disorder it all means the same thing to veterans who have served their country by putting themselves in harm's way. But for women veterans of WWII like Rose Krantz, it also meant coming back to a country that, even during the war, hadn't given them the rights that the lowest-ranking male soldier enjoyed, barely acknowledged the sacrifices they had all made, and, in some cases, chastised them for even participating.
So in 1945, when Rose came home to bury her husband only to find out she was pregnant with his child, her nightmares,...
