Soon, however, he comes face to face with the reality of war. In the beginning, like Paul and his other friends, he had been very excited to march into France and invade it for his country. Like almost all of his friends, Albert Kropp too falls to the cruelty of war. What Happens to Kropp?

All these thoughts swarm Tjaden, and with all the death around him, his mental state takes a plunge. His situation will also make it worse for his family, who will have to take care of him, on top of the other things that they’ll already be burdened with.

He won’t be able to go back to his job in the police department, and he has no idea what he will do with his life without that. While going home is something that Tjaden had been looking forward to all this while, he knows that he won’t survive back home as an amputee. He knows that the doctor will most probably amputate his leg. Shrapnel has lodged itself around his thigh, and even though Tjaden can’t see his own wound, he knows that it is beyond repair. During a battle, one of his legs is severely injured. For Tjaden, however, the peaceful future doesn’t hold much promise. Still, it is something that they look forward to, with the hopes of finally leaving behind their hellish surroundings and going back to living in peace. War claims a lot of things from the soldiers and messes up them so deeply that the thought of going back to the normal world starts to feel alien to them. What Happens to Tjaden?
