Biography: 

At the end of the War, the assignment of the narrator is to read letters going from the front back home to make sure they don't reveal any military information. He seems to have real sympathy for both the soldiers, who write "transparent and honorable lies . . . in the script and spelling of schoolboys," and the "mothers and sweethearts" they are writing to (512).
