Conflict of the Book
Mortar
What is the main conflict in the book, “Sunrise over Fallujah”? Although there are many different conflicts in the book, the one main conflict in my opinion is when his dear friend, Captain Coles was killed by a roadside mortar. This was a tragic death and Robin was there to witness it all. This was the first death of somebody Robin cared about and had a huge impact on the way Robin acted in war.He moved more swiftly, Fired more cautiously and was overall a way more careful. He eventually got over this tragedy but still keeps it in his mind as a sign to stay safe and realizes this may happen to him if he does not stay more cautious.
