CHAPTER 4

on page 58 the men are ordered to take thier cigarettes and pipes out i dont get why the get this order because if thier sneaking around in the midst of night shouldnt they be quiet and not have a smeell in the air where the enemy can smeel it and poin them out i also dont get why there is alot of smoke around them if thier standing in a field anther thing i dont understand in this chapter was when they were at the field who eles was thier because it said that showdy figures filed up in lines i also relive the tone of this chapter was caring because paul helped a recruit out during a bombardment the recruit was scared and didnt know how to respond because at the beginning of the chapter paul stats that recruits are not well trained and thats why they die so easily when thier at war

  1. The reason they're told to put out them out is because the tips of them glow, and in the middle of the night, the enemy would be able to see and kill you.

  2. Would you want to be trying to ambush your enemy with a surprise attack and all they can see is hundreds of little glowing things coming at them? They might get a little bit suspicious and they might think something is up.

  3. exactly i think that taking all of them out was a very dumb idea if they were hiding
