Explanation:

The Things They Carried is a book written by Tim O'Brien, on war. The book is based mostly on his experience as a soldier.

In chapter titled 'On the Rainy River,' O'Brien shares that one day when he was filled with fear, he wrote a letter to his family and left for Canada. While on his way to Canada, he stayed with Elroy Berdahl in the Tip Top Lodge.

So, on his last day at lodge, O'Brien and Elroy went for fishing and reached near Canada on boat. But O'Brien makes a decision to go to war and he sees an audience cheering him as he returns.

The reason for listing these people is because they were the people whom he let down.

Therefore, option A is correct.
