Chapter 22

In this chapter Henry's rigment goes down hill. In another battle, he watches as the group gets thinner and thinner. He notices the firing is geting less and less. He reminds himself that Wilson and lieutenant are unharmed. He starts telling himself that he will not run away no matter how weak the rigment got. He thought his dead body would be the perfect revenge on the general for calling them mule drivers and mud diggers.

I think this chapter is kind of sad. Henry seems to be loosing faith and excitement. He is watching as this war is falling apart (on his side anyway), but it is good that he isn't going to flea from being defeated.

Question: What will happen to Henry and Wilson? It seems as if they are going to be the only ones that survive this battle.
