BLOG FOUR

3) When Captain Black was talking to his cohorts and he said this quote it goes with his thoughts of true Patriotism or the loyalty of people to their country. He believed that the more loyalty papers signed the more loyal a person was. He gave the example of why people make young children pledge allegiance before they truly know what they are doing.
4) When Yossarian said this quote to Clevinger he meant that it is possible to be killed in the line of duty by anyone. Saying this lead me to believe that an enemy is one that harms you and killing a person is the utmost harmful. So, it is false because everyone isn't out to get just one person, but the problem in life is, everyone for themselves and when a person looks out for themselves they are mostly kept from the harm of others.
5) When Colonel Cathcart addressed Colonel Korn with this quote he seemed to be sarcastic because Yossarian didn't drop his bombs the first time and went around twice. So, he wanted to make Yossarian look like a fool because of his act. They decided to make him captain because he was "brave" enough to go around the target twice. The sense of guilt was Yossarian had messed up so he was already guilty now he had the Colonel's rubbing it in his face, for trying to do his duty.
