__Benjamin loves work but home is getting less interesting__
Benjamin is making money and really making friends too. He seems to grow younger every year, as his wife gets older. He wants to go to parties and live the "good life" while his wife is at home with their 14 yr old son. He has the chance to leave home and ends up joining the military and goes off to war. Why do you think he found it exciting to go to war?
