Why does Leckie land in hospital in The Pacific?
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT As the grittier companion to Tom Hanks' Band of Brothers, The Pacific often takes on a darker tone than the other World War II miniseries, which can be seen in its storyline about Marine Robert Leckie's enuresis diagnosis. Private Leckie, who is played by James Badge Dale in the war series, is based on the real Robert Leckie, the war veteran and historian who wrote Helmet for My Pillow.
Robert Leckie Was Diagnosed With Nocturnal Enuresis In The Pacific In The Pacific episode "Part Four," Leckie has a row with Larkin over a stolen chest before the men notice that Leckie has unknowingly urinated in his trousers. This leads to Stern diagnosing him with nocturnal enuresis — bed-wetting — and telling him, unhelpfully, that the only thing he can do is try to "stay dry." Later on, in a camp on Pavuvu, Leckie is found having wet his bed again.
Why Enuresis Was Common For Soldiers In WW2 After the battles of The Pacific, the miniseries shows Leckie going home and building a life for himself with partner Vera, as the real Robert Leckie did. However, this ending comes after a significant amount of trauma. Other characters, such as Eugene Sledge, carry this trauma through their lives. It's no surprise, considering the horrors of World War II, that trauma — which enuresis stems from — was so common.
