The beginning of "The Little Regiment" introduces readers to the atmospheric setting of a regiment awaiting action, complete with the tension in the air as sounds of a distant conflict reach them. The fog envelops the soldiers, whose interactions reveal a blend of humor and discomfort as they grapple with their anxieties. Among them are two brothers, Billie and Dan Dempster, whose bickering hints at their close yet contentious relationship. As they prepare to engage in battle, their individual emotions and familial bonds are highlighted amidst the looming chaos, hinting at the unfolding drama and the struggle for survival that these soldiers will face.
