This chapter examines the extent to which the Free Officers formed a political ethos that inclined them toward intervention in civilian politics during the conspiratorial stage. The Free Officers' movement was the culmination of a dramatic political reorientation among the officer corps between 1936 and 1952. They represented the generation that turned away from the political establishment and rejected the leadership of its elders. The soldier's relationship to his country, to his people, to his commanding officers and king gave the young officers a particular perspective on the decay of the liberal order. This chapter first provides a historical background on the Egyptian military before discussing the organization of the Free Officers, along with its political activism, developing ideology, and ties to the Muslim Brotherhood.

This chapter details Saw Ralph's journey across Burma as a soldier. Along the way, he encounters new people and new locales, showcasing the ethnic tensions among the varied Burmese population. The journey is not entirely a pleasant one for Saw Ralph and his unit, however, and this chapter shows his inexperience in matters of survival as well as the tensions between the soldiers and their commanding officers. In June 1949, the Karen war establishment introduced major changes to the structure of the forces Ralph was a part of. The army, which had been part of the Karen National Defence Organisation, was renamed the Kawthoolei Armed Forces (KAF) and its war office was located in Papun. The name was changed to show that the army was part of Karen territory.
