In what way is this passage not similar to the passage from “an episode of war”? bullets began to whistle among the branches and nip at the trees. twigs and leaves came sailing down. it was as if a thousand axes, wee and invisible, were being wielded. many of the men were constantly dodging and ducking their heads. the lieutenant of the youth's company was shot in the hand. he began to swear so wondrously that a nervous laugh went along the regimental line. the officer's profanity sounded conventional. it relieved the tightened senses of the new men. it was as if he had hit his fingers with a tack hammer at home. he held the wounded member carefully away from his side so that the blood would not drip upon his trousers. the captain of the company, tucking his sword under his arm, produced a handkerchief and began to bind with it the lieutenant's wound. and they disputed as to how the binding should be done.
a. both episodes involve a lieutenant being shot
b. both episodes take place during a war
c. both episodes cause the witnessing soldiers to laugh
d. both episodes involve someone to bandage a lieutenant

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
