AQOTWF: Chapter 2 - Theme

The most common theme that I can see in Chapter 2 is the theme of time. Time is changing quickly and not one of the boys that are experiencing this time in history are able to catch up to it. The reality of the "changes of time" is simple if you are able to catch the little things that are slowly chipping away at the dream of war. The dream is to end the war in glory even if that means to lose an arm or a leg. What's happening with these boys is so quick that one minute they're eating a good, hearty meal and the next minute they're trying on a set of their dead friends boots. This theme in Chapter 2 and in the rest of the book is difficult to see but if the right amount of attention is given then it's more likely to be caught.
