Reaction to The Fugue

I didn't know that the Fugue was considered as Iraq. He basically thinks Iraq is shit because of what he has to do and go past through in the fake field of war. This started out as him being a kid and talks about the smell of female part which I think is very awkward. The story was super long. There was so much to it. It's like combining multiple of his life in one. I realized that he always asked himself if whether the fake field was something real that was happening at the moment. He also kept asking whether certain people meant what they meant and whether their thoughts were real there was just so much on his mind. He went into certain dept of thinking to just confuse himself more. And the ending was crazy. I did not expect for the soldiers in practice to accidentally kill someone and have it happened the way it did without it being bothered for. The girl was probably remembered in memory of her participation of this war practice. But there was so much information to this story that it would take a lot to find connections to each time period he had.
