Jack chases Ralph to the beach where a army man is there, he tells them a boat seen the forest of fire and came to check it out, he looks at the boys in disbelief that British boys could become like animals.

The book was pretty good. It surprised me that the boys would have actually go after Ralph and try and kill him. the fact that the boys turned "savage" so fast really made me wonder how civilized they really where to begin with. I wonder what would have happened to the boys when they got back home, would they even make it home or would they be sent back to the military camp for killing people.
