War, the survival of the strongest, the fight for control. In the picture we can see "No Man's Land", an area any man would avoid going to during war. The moment you step on that land it's pure chaos and you won't last long if there. Here we can see a man who was sent flying after a explosion near him and a soldier on the ground who is most likely dead. What could this picture possibly mean? When I look at this picture I can see the destruction of one's self, mentally and physically. Anything on "No Man's Land" will always end up destroyed or in pieces and how much the bunkers do protect the men at war. In chapter six a new recruit is on the front lines and they are under attack. The bunker is being bombarded, it seems like the end for everyone in there, nobody is safe and yet people choose to stay inside. The new recruit runs out of the bunker because of fear and he is unable to comprehend the current situation, so he goes out into the open and dies instantly. War changes us in many ways, it will test us to our limits, the only way to survive is staying calm and keeping our sanity. He ran out to "No Man's Land" and died. I see "No Man's Land" as a suicide area, the moment you stop on their you will die. Why would anyone even go there if they knew? They would go there because they weren't able to withstand the war anymore and went insane. They went there knowing they will be killed and most likely blown into pieces. The only reason people go on No Man's Land is when they can't take the war any longer. This demonstrates how war can destroy us mentally and physically.
