What does Joe want and why is it against regulations?
After all of the times that Joe tries to communicate with someone and failed, Joe finally got some of the generals to watch him do the Morse Code. This was amazing that he was finally able to communicate to someone who knew what he was saying. The general asks Joe what it is that he wants and Joe tells him that he wants out of the hospital. He tells Joe that letting him out of the hospital is against regulations. Joe leaving the hospital is against regulations because of the condition that he is in. The general and the rest of the outside world doesn't want to see how badly the war can affect someone. I hate that Joe can't get out of the hospital just because it would show what the war could possibly do to you. Joe is really hurt that he can not leave but then later starts to realize what seeing him would do to the outside world. I think it is wrong that he has to be kept in the hospital just because it would show what the war could do.

Katie, you wrote this blog well. But, I think you missed some of the points. If you read Ashley's blog for this section, it is very well written and explains everything. It is a confusing novel, so don't worry about it too much. :] Good job, Katie!
But who knows. I could be wrong. Maybe I should be the one reading more closely. Sorry if my comment upset you. I didn't mean to make you angry.
I read it again and I guess this blog is fine.
Sorry for the confusion. My B.
