Read the excerpt from hemingway’s a farewell to arms.
outside it was getting dark. i asked what time the attack was to be and they said as soon as it was dark. i went back to the drivers. they were sitting in the dugout talking and when i came in they stopped. i gave them each a package of cigarettes, macedonias, loosely packed cigarettes that spilled tobacco and needed to have the ends twisted before you smoked them. manera lit his lighter and passed it around.
what about the actions of these men exemplifies them as hemingway heroes?
they talk about the oncoming attack, clearly with a deep sense of worry for their own safety and the safety of others.
they have not yet lived through a battle and are naive about the imminent danger that awaits them.
they have the bond only men in battle can share, and this is related by the way they partake of the cigarettes.
they act casually and go about regular business, such as smoking, while actually in grave danger

They act casually and go about regular business, such as smoking, while actually in grave danger.

Explanation:

In Ernest Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms", the hero or protagonist of the story is a young Lieutenant Frederic Henry, an ambulance driver for the Italian Army during World War I. He served in the army, helping people and doing deliveries of any type.

The above excerpt from the novel shows the soldiers acting casually, as if the war they are fighting is an everyday issue. They don't seem to mind the gravity of the situation, and the need to fight and prepare to be attacked anytime. They just act casually and go about regular business, smoking and passing it around while being in grave danger at the same time. This action of the soldiers can be taken as a typical characteristic of a hero in Hemingway's novels.

first of all the mood needs to be defined: it is obviously a mood of deceitful relief and serenity. why? because the cape horn is one of the most violent maritime regions of earth and although it has been left behind, it is a personification of ahab’s delirium and the fact that the end of the passage speaks about it about being “hidden” but “raving” immediately conveys the feeling the calm is not permanent but fleeting.

furthermore, the oxymoron “mild stun'sails” is the first instance of such feeling as the adjective “mild” is associated with “stunned” underscoring the fleeting nature of this “tranquil” moment. and the contrasts keep piling up, with the opposition between “dark den” and “blessed light and air” to end with the final conclusion that leaves the reader with the uneasy knowledge that this is just a reprieve.
