In "the private history of a campaign that failed," twain writes, "we were equal to the occasion. in our response there was no hesitation, no indecision" (71). this type of writing is an example of
a. hypocrisy.
b. mock heroics.
c. an anecdote.
d. a motif.

I believe the answer is b. mock heroics.  Twain was probably referring to the Civil War where acts of heroism were made due to survival.  The desire to live through a battle moves people go beyond themselves.  True they are afraid but the will to live is so strong that they will what it takes to stay alive in the field.

b. by enlisting in the military to fight
