Respuesta :

"In Another Country" is about an ambulance corps member in Milan during World War I. Although unnamed, he is assumed to be "Nick Adams" a character Hemingway made to represent himself. The primary reason the narrator received his medal was because of his accidental war injury. 

Answer:

  • He is an American

Explanation:

In the short story "In Another Country," by Ernest Hemingway, the storyteller depicts how he and his mates all had "the same medals," aside from one officer who had not been at the front for adequate time to get a decoration, and another who had been a lieutenant and who had three awards "of the sort we each only had one of." This recommends the awards are crusade decorations, given to warriors for their cooperation in explicit battles. As the storyteller himself discloses it to the neighborhood young men, he "had been given the medals since I was an American." Other armed forces don't grant awards similarly that the American armed force does, and this admission changes the frame of mind of the young men toward him, as they had "done altogether different things to get their awards."

The storyteller perceives that he was injured in service, however says this was extremely "an accident." Though he isn't embarrassed about his own award, he can't envision having done the things the others have done to get theirs.
