He has so much responsibility that he blames himself for the death of two of his soldiers: Ted Lavender and Kiowa. There are two deaths that Cross blames himself for: Ted Lavender and Kiowa. He feels guilty because he thinks that if he had been watching his soldiers carefully than it would not have happened. “When a man died, there had to be blame. Jimmy Cross understood this. You could blame the war… A moment of carelessness or bad judgment or plain stupidity carried consequences that lasted forever.” (O’Brien 169) Someone or something must be blamed when a man died. Jimmy Cross always blamed himself because he was the leader. He carried a lot of guilt throughout the war. He blames himself for thinking of Martha instead of focusing on the war.

Another way that one could view this story is that Cross has a stronger character toward the end of the story. He showed this by burning the pictures of Martha, starting a new life by devoting himself to his job, becoming a better leader, and by getting rid of other distractions. Jimmy Cross started out being a quiet, easy going leader. He would be in the midst of the war, yet he would be thinking of Martha back home.

The death of a young African American male in 1955 haunted the south and the African American society. Images of Emmett Till hanging in a tree were plastered on television and in newspapers for Joseph McNeil, Ezell Blair Jr., Franklin McCain, and David Richmond to see while attending North Carolina A & T College in 1960. These four African American men would soon become known as the Greensboro Four after instigating a sit-in at a Woolworth’s store in Greensboro, North Carolina. Their courage and determination ignited a movement to end segregation not only in their state but across the nation. History was being made that day as the young men sat at the counter, customers inside watching as the events unfolded, and the impact of this incident permeating across American’s eyes.

Alien in one definition is: “Too different from something to be acceptable or suitable,” and Illegal in one definition is “Not allowed by the law.” (Mirriam-Webster Dictionary) The words ‘Alien’ and ‘Illegal’ have inherent negative connotations. A person does not need to know the intimate or factual circumstances associated with those words to understand their symbolism. When those words are used to label the social group of undocumented Latino day laborers the inherent reaction is to see them in a negative way. The individuals become a stigmatized group.

He is so convinced that performing his duties is the only way to make reparations for the death of Lavender that he denies himself one of the basic human emotions, love. He vows to forget about Martha, clean up his brigade, confiscate Lavender's dope, enforce better security measures, and keep the soldiers focused on the war. Cross pulls a 360 from the beginning of the story, and it is certainly not normal. The overcompensation from lax to strict is a warped idea Cross believes will prevent future deaths from occurring. He has convinced himself that love and duty cannot coexist in
