Do You Believe That Going To War Made O'Brien A Coward? Why Or Why Not? Did Reading This Story Make You Think Differently About Going To War?

    I don't think it made him a coward. I say he's not a coward for going to war because I think he kind of convinced himself that he can't just run from his problems. If you do it just creates more problems for yourself. I don't think it made me think differently about going to war. For one thing: I would have probably done what O'Brien did. I would try to flee and find another way to provide for myself, to not think about the draft and avoid it. Although I probably would've held on much longer to the fact that I could run from war. After a little while I probably would've gave in to my conscious telling me its wrong to flee and that I won't get away with it.
