Wouldn't this be true for anyone who survived WWII? In other words, a majority of the people on the planet, centering around Europe and the Far East? But every single Soviet citizen was negatively affected by a war that cost them 27M lives.

I don't think that would be true, people were affected by WWII to different extents.

On a personal level, I can't really claim any negative effects, both grandfathers were in reserved occupations in the UK.
