Chapter 18

In this chapter is intense. As the battle deep in the forest gets louder the air is filled with smoke and the roaring sound of gun fires. When Jimmie Rogers starts screaming in pain, Wilson and Henry go to find him some water, thinking there is a stream nearby, but there isn't. While Henry and Wilson are looking for water they get to a spot where they can see the battle unfold. The general and staff walk by talking about a weak position. They say they need a weak rigment. They say they do not need the 304th, which happens to be Henry's rigment. They say the members "fight like a lot 'a mule drivers."

This is just Henry's luck. When he is supposed to be fighting he runs away, but when he is actually fighting, he is in the weakest rigment.

Question: Are they going to set Henry's rigment up to be killed (kind of like a distraction for the enemy)?
