Quote #10
In single files
they sponge-bathe
and relieve themselves
behind blanket curtains. (2.9.3)
War strips people of all sorts of basic dignities, like pooping in private instead of behind a curtain with a long line of people waiting just on the other side. You might be tempted to giggle at that sentence, but if you really think about, we think you'll agree it's a pretty terrible reality to be confronted with, day in and day out.
