So far so good.  This book is pretty interesting, and creates some good images in my head.  Anyways, Henry's regiment is stationary right now and has been for like two weeks.  Henry is the young gun of the group, and seems to be the main character right now.  One of his fellow soldiers, Jim, came back from washing his clothes in the river, and told the rest of the soldiers that they were moving on the morrow.  Many of the soldiers figured it was a lie, because Jim overheard this rumor when he was down by the river.  The book flashes back to Henry's life before the war.  It basically talks about how and why Henry enlisted for the war.  His mom tells him not to get caught up with all the bad things that the men get up with during the war, to be a good boy, and to always write her. Thats about it.  Feels good to be done with the first 30.
