1. What does the title of this book mean? Be specific in your response, noting Henry's comments.
* The red badge is when you have a wound from being in the war. The courage part comes from being courageous in the battle.

2. What is the importance of the tattered man? What does he represent?
* The tattered man represents the things that Henry lacks. He keeps repeating a question to Henry. Then Henry feels quilty.
3. What role does Henry's mother play while he is away from her?
* She is kind of a conscience inside his head. She is helping him make decisions based on what she would have told him back at home.
4. How does Henry use the squirrel to justify his actions?
* Because if something that doesn't seem safe of scary comes at him, he always just wants to run away. For example, the tattered man. He came to Henry trying to get some help, but Henry turns around and runs away.

Your basic understanding is very good, but you miss some of the key parts with the tattered man and the squirrel. The question he keeps asking is important, and the squirrel specifically justifies something.
And, while very pretty, that green is really hard for my old eyes to read. :)
