And She Danced- Style

One problem I believe soldiers have is that after a while they forget what they're actually doing. If this girl hadn't of danced in the ruins of her house I doubt this little village would of been remembered at all. What I found interesting is that some of the troops were making fun of her, despite the fact that they wore stockings around their neck or they humped other random things to allieve the pain war causes. This girl could of screamed and attacked the soldiers for their actions, but similar to the monks in the Church chapter she just pushes that feeling aside and tries to find joy in the bleakest of moments. I must congratulate this flat character on making the troops take a step back and realize that they are affecting people, and that they aren't the only ones carrying things.
