CH. 3 response

My favorite part of chapter 3 was where he describes the German shepherd named "Princess".  I'm still amazed at how little emotion is put into these really intense situations. The writing is lighthearted even though people are being tortured, are in pain and dying.  So it goes.....  I was confused about the symbolism of the gold corporal's boots and Adam and Eve.  The jumping through time was also a bit confusing at first, but now I understand it more, but I still don't get is the jumping all mental or is he ACTUALLY moving around in time.  Either way its weird and crazy but the book is pretty good so far.
