CH. 15-16 response

I felt sorry for Beah and all the child soldiers in this ch. because the one person they trusted (the leuitenant), even though he said not to trust anyone, they still trusted him, gave them a feeling of betrayal, and that is why maybe the child soldiers might not trust anyone now but their fellow soldiers. Also i was not suprised when the 20 minute long engagement started, because the two sides hate each other with a vengeance, and the attrocities that both sides commited, and the simple fact that both sides where molded to fight each other. To see Beah go through withdrawl was pretty good, so even though he had a really tough time stopping, with all the cravings and violent mood swings, at least he stopped, well, is going through the process.
