Slaughterhouse-Five Chapter 7, Section 9

By Kurt Vonnegut

Chapter 7, Section 9

By the time they find the communal kitchen, pretty much everyone has left.
There is only one woman, a war widow, waiting to give them food.
She asks Gluck if he isn't a bit young to be in the army (which he is).
She asks Edgar Derby if he isn't a bit old to be in the army (which he is).
She doesn't know what Billy's supposed to be.
