*Quiz #2*

Henry is referred to as "the youth" and Wilson is referred to as "the loud private." How has each character changed from the beginning of the story to now, specifically in regards to these monikers? Use specific examples from the story to support your answer.

* The reason why they refer to Henry as "the youth" is because he is an unexperienced soldier. In this story, he represents all of the unexperienced soldiers that go into battle. For example, when he threw that pine cone at the squirrel, and then the squirrel ran away. That's the same as Henry did. That is the sign of an unexperienced soldier/"the youth". Another reason he would be called "the youth" is because of his age. He is only 17 or 18 years old. That is when most of the soldiers started enlisting.
I think they call Wilson "the loud private" because he is very pushy and he gives a lot of orders. The only thing wrong with him giving orders is that he doesn't have the rank that allows him to do that.
