9.) The pilot believes he is in france because he sees a sign that reads G-A-R-D-E  A-U C-H-I-E-N , Garde au chien, meaning beware of the dog in french.

10.) The pilot now recalls the sentence Johnny used to repeat to the pilots everyday because he is afraid that he will get captured by the french and if he does they should know nothing but his name,rank,and number.

11.) The pilot's reactions at the beginning of the story was calm and settle. He wasn't worried at all until he felt as though he was about to faint because he was loosing too much blood. His attempt to get out the window was because he was afraid that the french would capture him but he didn't get away because he saw a sign that puzzled him realizing that he was in France. His responses to the nurse and the wing commander at the end of the story was because he didn't feel as though he could trust them.
