"Night Life"

The “Night Life” both supports and refutes Tim O’Brien’s contention that men are too afraid of shame to leave the kill-or-be-killed life of war. Like in previous chapters Kiley is less afraid of physical pain than he is of the unknown. Kiley's fear drives him to show his own cowardice. To the men, refusal to serve is as undesirable as death itself.
