While on their journey to find Italy Anchises passes away, Aeneas is heartbroken and once again had to endure another death. However Virgil’s keeps reminding us of Anchises, as he refers to Aeneas as “son of Anchises.” Even though Anchises dies and we are told about this in book 3, in book 5 he returns to Aeneas and tells him to visit the underworld. Even though he is dead he still worries about his son and asks him to come see him. This shows us the importance of their relationship because Aeneas risks his life to go visit his father in hades and his father still wants to help Aeneas reach Italy.

As the audience reads more into Frank’s stories, we get an idea that he wasn’t supportive of his son joining the United States military in the beginning. This tone that Frank uses is a pathos form of writing which helps the audience connect with the author. As he drives home from taking his son to boot camp, the author loses his way home a couple times, to not knowing how to feel about John leaving. Schaeffer paints a picture of being discombobulated. Although Frank questions himself saying “Why the hell is John joining the military” (630) by the end, we have an author who is very proud and glad..
