Chapter 1

In the first chapter we are in an army camp. i think that the setting is during the civil war because they are blue and brass and are called Yanks. The camp that they are in has not seen any fighting yet but they are all itching to fight. There are always rumors being spread about when they are going to move into battle. the main character i think is Henry. He left his mothers farm to enlist. she was not very happy about this but she didn't really say too much about how she felt. the reason he joined was to be envolved in epic battles but there have been none yet and he is not very happy about this. there was also two soldiers that got into a little scuffle because one heard a rumor they were going to move and the other didn't believe it.
