Warrior ethos can mean very many different things depending on the situation. However the book, “Warrior Ethos” has given multiple definitions and examples to better understand the meaning. Although almost all can be compared in everyday life, all can be used in war.
Part one of the book, “Warrior Ethos” can be the strongest and most impacting chapters of the book. Although two and three, will discuss in detail what is means to be a warrior, chapter one will discuss the most common thing everyone holds near to their heart, their mother. Growing up, every child will turn to their mother for nurture, or support. Without realizing it we become dependent to them. From the best and worst times we always seem to turn to them. Just as in the chapters, one of the boys turn to his own mother. When we was headed off to war, he turned back to run to his mother. Although I’m sure he felt scared, I feel like the book was trying to show him looking for support. And the mother said the only way he will run away from his destiny, will be if he was going to run back where he came from. By this she meant back inside of her. Although a strong statement, she was just telling him that there is no other option than to go to war.
Through these times, being included in these battles was the best flattery anyone can offer. Being a warrior meant you had one of the strongest hearts. This is because that’s what makes a warrior, the heart that he is able to turn to when feeling lost. Through this warriors can rely on what makes them strive to get home. Having your mother, sister, or anyone back at home is what makes them fight so hard to live through it.
These mothers are not like the rest, they are far stronger than anyone would ever think. These mothers told their sons there was no other way beyond the battle. This is because each of these mothers knew that deep down, that the battle needed their son more than they did.
