The Appearance of Kat
"The leader of our group, shrewd,
cunning, and hard-bitten, forty years of
age, with a face of the soil, blue eyes, bentshoulders, and a remarkable nose for
dirty weather, good food, and soft jobs."
- Erich Maria Remarque, All Quiet On The
Western Front, Ch. 1

Character of Kat
Katczinsky got angry. You might be
generous for once. You havent drawn
food for eighty men. Youve drawn it for
the entire Second Company. Good. Letshave it then. We are the Second
Company.

Kats Life Before the War
Katczinsky is the smartest I know. By
trade he is a cobbler, I believe, but that
hasnt anything to do with it; he
understands all trades.
Kat had a life previous to war, and
therefore has more to loose then hisfellow comrades.

Kat is a Fatherly Figure
Only the young recruits are agitated. Kat
explains to them: That was a twelve-inch.
You can tell by the report; now youll hear
the burst.
Kat looks out for the new recruits even
though he doesnt have to, therefore he
acts as a fatherly figure towards others.

Kats Instincts
Kat listens: Therell be a bombardment
to-night.
"That is Kat. If for one hour in a year
something eatable were to be had in some
one place only, within that hour, as if
moved by a vision, he would put on his
cap, go out and walk directly there, asthough following a compass, and find it."

Kat is Resourceful:
Then he hauls out a frying pan from
under his coat, and a handful of salt as
well as a lump of fat from his pocket.
Kat has a knack for finding things
whenever his people are in need of
something. If seems as if he can do justabout anything.

Kat Provides for His Men
Kat gives no explanation. He has the
bread, the rest doesnt matter. Im sure
that if he were planted down in the
middle of the desert, in half an hour hewould have gathered together a supper of
roast meat, dates, and wine.
He finds everything- if it is cold, a smallstove and wood, hay and straw, a table
and chairs- but above all food. It is
uncanny; one would think he conjured it
out of the air.

Kat Values the Lives of His Men
Kat shakes his head. Such a kid- He
repeats it. Young innocents-
Kat has proven that he takes care of his
men, even though they are not his to
protect.

Kat in the Eyes of Paul
"That is Kat. If for one hour in a year
something eatable were to be had in some
one place only, within that hour, as if
moved by a vision, he would put on hiscap, go out and walk directly there, as
though following a compass, and find it.
Here, it is noted that Paul has great faith
in Kat and his abilities to provide for
them.

Kat Slowly Changes
After the battle in the graveyard, Kat
becomes disconnected to the world
around him. His talk amongst his friends
lessens. And soon
