Letters with chatty words from an innocent virgin would undoubtedly drive a boy who is at the height of his youth and vigor. First Lieutenant Jimmy Cross is just a typical case of such situation who brought the letters from Martha even onto the battle field. However, his passionate love towards Martha seems hinders the movement at the battlefield. As a lieutenant who ought to take care every one in his group, Jimmy Cross blames himself for the death of Lavender, which becomes a knot to his love for Martha, and it finally developed into a burden Jimmy continuously carries.
Burden, often referred to as something that hinders common movements, both concretely and abstractly. And when it comes to the concrete aspects, it is also categorized as mentally and materially. Once suffered from a certain accident, one leaves great reactions in his minds. Due to the reactions many of the things that used to be common then converted into uncertainties. Along with is are the miseries and hurts inside people’s heart. Jimmy’s burden, as mentioned, is mentally speaking and is inited form the death of Ted Lavender. The moment that Ted Lavender dead is firstly the people joking about another solider at the point, who after a seemingly forever and extremely lethal waiting, finally climbs out of the tunnel. The members are relaxed at the few seconds for the first time during the task—while Lieutenant Jimmy Cross is immersed in his profound and passionate thought of Martha as usual. He is searching Martha not only in his thought, but also in the tunnel, everywhere in his surroundings. He is overwhelmed, until the scream is heard and they find the man dead when peeing. The scene, was not fairly for descriptions—the one who saw it happen, described it as watching a rock fall, or a big sandbag or something—just boom, then down—much more different from the movies where the dead guy rolls around and does fancy spins going ass over teakettle. The simple movement of the dead and the face without cheekbone no wonder leaves a bad hurt deep inside Lieutenant. He already realized the truth that he loves Martha more than his man, what’s more, he also cares much about his men, and he should carry the responsibility for the safety of his man. He blames the death of his man on himself, which, turned out to be a burden consisted of guilty and compunction of his negligence. Carrying on this burden with himself in the rest of the war, he then exposes himself to another ruthless reality of that, Martha has never loved him. It is only him who feels romantic and all the things have happened are like drama.
The death of Tom Lavender turns out to be a great plot of the Lieutenant’s life. After that happened, he “led his men into the village where Tom was killed. They burned everything out of anger, and even go every far shooting chickens and dogs, they trash the village well. While Kiowa explained how Lavender died, Lieutenant Cross found himself trembling. He tried not to cry. With his entrenching tool, which weighed 5 pounds, he began digging a hole in the earth.” Such movement can be described as they are try to calm themselves down and give vent to their anger. Or it might be movements out of the desire for vengeance. No matter how it is been called, it is in deed because of the burden carried by Jimmy. The death of his man is not the only impact he has received, but also the truth that he is not loved by Martha hit him even harder. His was so fascinated by his imagination of Martha and so indulged in the fancies he created himself. But this is wrong as it is made up all by himself. This arouse another burden on his shoulder. Knowing that he shouldn’t put his private feelings beyond the safety of his men, he regrets to devote all of him into the love for Martha, which, also in turns, requires him to forget about Martha and put all his effort on to the battle. He is restricted by the burden which had already landed on his shoulder and consequently his love for Martha becomes another burden. This is somehow complicated as this two burdens actually mutually have affections. The first burden, which is referred to the death, fosters the burden of the later one for love affair; and in turns the second one enlarges the sorrow brought the first burden. As a result of learning this, he convinces himself to let go, which he does succeed in doing so by burning the letters as well as the photograph of hers and dropped the burden of his love. Standing in front of a battlefield with members, he can no longer afford another lost of his men. Compared with the triumph international wars, the private emotions and affairs are no more something that matter. He has to choose to lose one burden as he cannot carry that much while witnessing death from day to night. However, though it is a burden which gives pressure and sorrow, it doesn’t always lead to misery. As the Lieutenant Jimmy Cross have experience the tragic of Tom, he becomes concentrated in the fightings and cares much the safety than ever. The burden is forcing him to eliminate all the risk that may appear and move in elaborated ways to carry their tasks, which is a good sign for a Lieutenant who is in charge of a group of people. His zero tolerate on laxity. He shows strength and keeps himself distanced. And since that they have realized what death is. Long has been saying that the wars are cruel, but no one can tell how cruel it can be until he is sent onto the battle. The most precious thing that we can imagine in daily life is no more thing to be pitied. The burden has awakened the 24-year-old Lieutenant who is initially at lost. It is written in the book that they carried their reputations. as well as the soldier's greatest fear, the fear of blushing. Men killed, and died, because they were embarrassed not to. This can hardly be described as a modification for his burdened life, but this is somehow another kind of conversion one must go through during his lifetime.

He then cut the passion for Martha and then put himself into the war. He regards the accident as his own fault and cannot stop blaming himself.
