Chapter 3Paul reminisces about the time when Tjaden, Haie, himself and Kropp got revenge on Himmelstoss by jumping him in an alley, and beating him, stripping him of his trousers, and lashing him with a whip, through a blanket, while muffling his
cries with a pillow.

Chapter 4While the new and old recruits are laying barbed wire at the front, Paul comes across a young soldier who is distraught and embarrassed to find that he has defecated in his pants. Paul, sympathetically offers that this often happens to new recruits at
first, and to remove his soiled underwear, and dispose of them.

Chapter 5Paul and his comrades are plucking lice from their clothes. Tjaden rigs up a tin lid over a flame to throw them into because squishing them hurts their fingers. They make a popping sound, and Haie says that he will use the gathering fat and oil to
shine his boots later.

Chapter 6As Paul looked out over the horizon, a striking image flooded his perception; two tiger butterflies had landed upon a bleached skull, stranded in the crossfire. It made Paul cringe and think about
mother nature’s quiet diffidence towards the raging war.

Chapter 7Paul, Leer, and Kropp met three French women, while bathing in the river. When the three women see that they have good food and bread they eagerly invite the men over to their house. The three men swim naked across the water with the food
wrapped up, and meet the girls. They eat, chat and share an intimate night with them before returning to camp.

Chapter 8Paul is sent to training camp, where there is a prison next door. The Russian prisoners have “honest peasant faces” that make it hard for him to believe that they are the enemy. He feels that he isn’t much different from them and that if it
weren’t for the government telling them to, he would have no desire to fight them, nor would they wish to fight him. Many of the prisoners are starving, and dying of dysentery.

Chapter 9Out in the battle field, they pass the remnants of a shell attack. The bombs hit with such force that the fallen soldiers are blown clean out of their clothes, body parts are scattered everywhere, and there are even bodies littering the branches of
trees. It is a truly gruesome sight to behold.

Chapter 12It’s Autumn 1918 and Paul is the only living member of his classmates that enlisted. He dies in October, on an unusually
peaceful day. His face is calm, “almost as though glad the end had come.” The army would describe this day in one sentence. “ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT”
