So far the motif of this book is perseverance. This 15-year-old Noah basically is thrown into military training and has to learn how to ski. Even though he's from Texas. And the journey of him having thoughts about quitting and still basically putting his body in harm's way. He has nowhere to go so he's still going through the training even if it's painful

Towards the ending. The book used the word medical a lot. This would imply that Noah's gonna become a doctor after taking the hill from the Germans. And James Shelly literally said that Noah would become a doctor instead of a soldier for the remainder of the war.

A new motif in this book is pain/suffering. Noah's in war now and now one of his friends got Kia. There were mainly independent clauses and barely any dependent clauses in the reading.

''Noah blinked with suprise at the truth of Daniel's observation.'' Noah is the one that hates Daniel the most in the camp. But even if so Daniel was honest with Noah about their struggles together. It kinda just shows that like even though you may not like this person they can be honest and truthful with you. Thats what struck me in this chapter

So another motif that I found while reading. Was identity in this book, I've already established that courage is one of the motifs in this book. But not it seems like courage is Noah's identity in this book. As he's doing all these crazy training activities with bullets being fired at him he gets more and more courageous and less and less fearful of these things. His character/identity is changing
