Chapter 6 Post 1

In this chapter, the soldiers are finally moved to Dresden. As they arrive they are greeted by German civilians. One of these civilians, a surgeon, gets into it with Billy. This man acts as a foil character. Their personalities conflict probably because of their different nationalities during this time of war. This man is put into the book by Vonnegut because he shows the tension between the two countries. Although the altercation was not a huge deal, it was started because they didn't like the looks of each other.
