This chapter/section realy starts to show what the soldiers do to compensate mentally for the war. They get new reinforcements and get to feel like veterenas. it makes them feel powerful, but they also feel like they are being hypocritical because they hate the power ladder of the army. They all gather around and propose different ways to cope rather than war, one guy says that the leaders of each nation should battel to the death instead of armies, but then they realize that all leaders are cowards. So they think of their own leader Himmelstoss, and loathe him. Paul is in a blood rage and him and his friends amush Himmelstoss and beat him. This chapter really starts to develope Paul as the war changes him. He is becoming instinctuous and angry.
War SUX
