[The exhilaration) was usually followed by
more of the same hot walking, with the mud
sucking at our boots and the sun thudding
against our helmets while an invisible enemy
shot at us from distant tree lines. ... Weeks
of bottled-up tensions would be released in a
few minutes of... violence, men screaming
and shouting obscenities above the
explosions of grenades and the rapid, rippling
bursts of automatie rifles.
-Rumor of War, Philip Caputo
What contrast does Caputo create with the
imagery in this excerpt?
a slow, repetitive pattern and sudden chaos
muted, dull colors and bright, cheerful colors
sweet, tender kindness and vicious, evil
cruelty
unbearable tension and soothing relaxation
