Description

As above, but while at the seminary, he has a dream, and travels north to an Indian reservation to get it interpreted. There, he discovers that his Spirit has been re-incarnated from a Great Hunter from years ago. Both he and the old Indian interpreter don't want to believe it, but finally must.
While in Korea, he goes across enemy lines with Turks at night to kill unsuspecting soldiers. Winter, he comes across a foxhole covered with a tarp for warmth, and stabs a young soldier in the throat. But the soldier looks like a picture of an Oriental Madonna he had seen, and he can't escape the image. An enemy barrage wounds him, and he ends up then in the Turkish hospital.
