1) Hitler served a year, while getting preferential treatment from guards. I don't see how that small amount of time, under those conditions would psychologically scar him.

2) It is generally believed that Hitler was a virulent anti-Semitic before World War I and that if anything psychologically scarred him, it would have been the fact that he was gassed during the war.

This part of you that will be still alive after this procedure is welcome. I need some food for my dog.
