Kattekoppen

Kattekoppen was the name of the candy that was sent to Levi, from his mother, I believe it was Dutch candy along with other things but Levi didn't eat it he just held it aside.
The story talks bout a special unit in the army responsible for night tactics. It was interesting how he referenced Kattekoppen to an attack he witnessed years ago. Levi is the protagonist in this story although the story is being told by someone else. I think the author may have done that to tell the story of war and how it can change someone. I think Levi was more focused on tactics before going home then after being there for the delivery of his child and then returning becoming more concerned with life and not knowing whether or not he will die in war. While Levi was away two soldiers were ambushed and that to me became the climax. They both were found dead and the reference again to Kattekoppen came when the author ate it to mask the terrible smell of the body of one of there soldiers.
