All shreds of free speech are gone; even admitting to being tired after a hard day can lead to arrest. More and more of the Rest and Nutrition Group are called up, but no news comes back from them. As Taro Yashima visits Kiyoshi before Kiyoshi's regiment ships out, he sees a sergeant and a major publicly acknowledge the fate that awaits them. Kiyoshi says he has kept his house in the village so that the villagers will have it when they need to fight for themselves. Both long for each to live as they grasp each other's hands and say farewell.
