Bravery In Georg Rauch's 'Unlikely Warrior'

In the book Unlikely Warrior by Georg Rauch the main character Georg shows bravery in the face of adversity many times. One example of him showing bravery is on page 217"that night, the following day, and the next night we spent in the fields near a small creek....I rested with my foot propped up high as much as possible. I had a fever and felt miserable." As a reader this shows me that even though he is sick,wounded,and not feeling the greatest.He is taking on that Bravery to go somewhere that may get them shot by their enemies.I also thought as a reader Georg has a lot of courage, and bravery to keep on going moreover and further each day and not to be a laggard like most of the soldiers are.Another example is on page 57 paragraph 1 "I was

assigned to a battalion headquarters that was situated in a village about three kilometers to the rear.Plodding through heavy snow,I arrived there on December 13.It was late,and I found a space to sleep on the floor of one of the houses." This shows me as a reader that even though it is cold,and snowy outside he is still taking on this mission that has taken a long time for Georg to arrive at the battalion headquarters. But most people would of thought why don't you exactly give up now,you are hurt badly just stay here and rest while the rest of us say that Gerg is not the kind of person who would give up in short notice he would try his best to go those extra miles every single day because he is a fighter,he is brave and shows it by the face of adversity.
