Diamond informs Estelle that his is the only group left at the barracks, other than a group of African-American troops left to clear up vacated barracks. Mentions that he has become known as "nigger lover Diamond" by the Southern soldiers, and speaks of his desire to give the soldiers in question a solid blow on the head to make them see reason.
