Answer 2

The false statement and the correct option is C. All soldiers were not ready to die for their country's honor and personal glory. (Option C)

• The conventions of men's physical interaction changed dramatically in the trenches of World War I.
• Mutilation and death, loneliness and boredom, the pressure of incessant bombing, linguistic breakdown, and a sense of estrangement from home all contributed to a new degree of closeness and intensity, under which the carefully crafted mores of civilian life crumbled.
• Men nursed and fed their comrades when they were sick, showered together, embraced each other while they danced, and wrapped blankets around each other over the long winter months, as historian Joanna Bourke has shown in her intriguing work on First World War and masculinity.
• The nature of these interactions — men on the edge of death, under fire, or unwell – gave them an emotional nakedness and intensity that not only outlived their contingent character but continues to increase in emotional significance and resonance. It's uncertain if they were "comradeship" connections, personal "friendships," or trench "brotherhood explanations."
