Welcome War Veterans
On Home Territory,
Says Psychology Prof
Friends and relatives, or re
turning war veterans should stage
their reunions on familiar home
territory, according to Dr. Kin
sley R. Smith, associate profes
sor 'of psychology.
"Both from a psychological and
practical point of view," he said,
"it is unwise to attempt to greet
veterans at debarkation points,
separation centers, or in a strange
railway station or city."
'iExplaining that battle front
experience plus months of sep
aration will likely cause the serv
iceman to feel strange and un
sure of himself when he returns,
Dr. Smith pointed out that both
the veteran and his loved ones
will be more at ease if the re
union takes place among familiar
surroundings.
"Because of crowded travel
conditions, inadequate housing
facilities in military centers, and
necessary restrictions on the serv
iceman prior to his discharge, an
attempt to go meet the veteran
will likely result in hardship and
disappointment," Dr. Smith ex
plained.
Stressing that recognition and.
appreciation will help servicemen
adjust to civilian life, Dr. Smith
urged communities, as well as in
dividual families, to stage "wel
come home" celebrations.
