Abstract: This chapter begins with Henry being very relaxed and happy because they have just defeated their enemy. The entire group of soldiers that Henry is in is very happy and shaking hands with each other and just having a good time. Suddenly, the enemy came back and began charging. The soldiers, including Henry, began sprinting back to get away from the charge. They go far enough back to meet the riflemen. The general is giving directions to the riflemen and the charge was stopped. Henry was surprised by this.
Response: The soldiers should have been ready for anything. They were too busy celebrating their victory to notice they were getting charged at. The leader of the group even ran back with them. He is supposed to lead and he was ran back instead of giving direction. Henry didn't even have his rifle. He is no good to the army without his weapon. They were lucky enough to get back to their support before they were shot and killed. Henry probably grew a lot from this experience and figured out that he always needs to be ready.
Question: How did the enemy regroup that fast? I thought they retreated from the battle.
