Parts of Kid Sampson’s body remain on the beach as the weather becomes colder. Each day, Yossarian wakes up and thinks about Kid Sampson and Snowden. Four new men arrive and move into Yossarian’s tent to take the place of the missing Orr. The 21-year-old men have never flown a mission. They joke around and nickname Yossarian “Yo-Yo” (277), infuriating Yossarian to the point where he wants to kill them. Not wanting to abandon the tent that belonged to Orr and Mudd, Yossarian asks Chief White Halfoat to scare the youngsters out of his tent, but Halfoat has decided to remain in the hospital because he wants to “die of pneumonia” (278). Though Yossarian begins to feel some affection toward the four young men, he loathes them again when they burn the logs for Orr’s stove and dispose of Mudd’s possessions. Yossarian reacts with panic. He takes a leave of absence and goes to Rome with Hungry Joe. The next day in the city, the sex worker with whom Nately is in love wakes up and decides that she, too, is in love.
