An hour later, over the tea-table, Susy already felt herself mysteriously reabsorbed into what had so long been her native element.

Most of them had just started on some course of professional training to which they won't have the energy to go back after a two years' interruption. The question one asks is how will all these men be reabsorbed into civilian life. I'm afraid the result will be a vast host of men with promising pasts and highly uncertain futures.
