Chapter 19

Henry and Wilson are angered by what the general said about their regiment. They go back to the camp and tell their unit that they are about to charge. They keep the information that the general and officers said to themselves. The regiment starts to charge toward the enemy and many of them in front of Henry are being shot, but they keep pressing foward. The regiment's flag carrier was shot and Henry and Wilson pick up the flag and continue charging the enemy.

Henry has changed entirely since he ran. When the flag carrier was shot he picked up the flag and kept moving foward with his regiment. He went from being a coward to couragous and is now even leading his troops. He wants to prove the general wrong about what he said how the 304th was bad.

Even though they knew they would most likely be killed, why did Henry and Wilson lead the 304th into the charge?
