Katczinsky



Stanislaus Katczinsky also know as Kat is the ring leader of Pual’s company. Katczinsky is a 40 year old man who, everyone looks up to him cause of his ability to survive and succeed in any situation. As a result he always leads his fellow German’s out of the dark hole they seem to always find themselves in. Kat right away in the story comes in with food for soldiers who all have empty stomachs. This defines who he is a self less soldier who looks out for his own company. He basically becomes Pauls older brother because they both survived as long as they did and realized they were on the same page for how to survive the war. Kat gets hit with shrapnel in the leg; so Paul must carry him back. As they head back to the camp Kat gets hit again and Paul finds him dead and devastated. Kat’s death was the final blow to Paul’s sanity and shortly after Paul died.
