The war wasn't all terror and violence. Sometimes things could almost get sweet. For instance, I remember a little boy with a plastic leg. I remember how he hopped over to Azar and asked for a chocolate bar "GI number one," the kid said and Azar laughed and handed over the chocolate. When the boy hopped away, Azar clucked his tough and said, "Wars a bitch." He shook his head sadly. "One leg, for Chrissake. Some poor fucker ran out of ammo." (30)
O'Brien shows that war sucks it was nothing but pure hell and innocent people get hurt innocent people as in children.
