3. What are some clues that the group is starting to think ‘more like soldiers’?

- They think strategically before they do things.

4. Do you think Homer’s plan will work? What problems do you think they might encounter?

5. What does Homer suggest they do when the group goes up to the Heron?

- Homer suggested to blow up the bridge.

6. What are his strategies to put his plan into action?
