The homecomer hopes in vain to re-establish the old intimate we-relations with the home group as recurrent ones. Analyses of the equivocal concepts "home" and "primary relations," from the point of view of the man left behind, as well as of the absent one, reveal that separation interrupts the community of space and time which the other has experienced as a unique individuality. Both sides, instead, build up a system of pseudo-types of the other which is hard to remove and never can be removed entirely because the homecomer, as well as the welcomer, has changed. This is of practical importance in the case of the returning veteran, whose life in the army shows a strange ambivalence not found in civil life
