Chapter 5

Tommy

Omri opens the cupboard door, there was a World War 1 medic, Omri tells the him that he is dreaming and wants him to help cure Little Bear. The medic is put down near  Little Bear, then takes out a pair of scissors, a bandage and medicine to patch up the Indian, once that was done, Omri puts him in the cupboard saying goodbye and the medic replies, "A pleasure, Tommy Atkins at your service" and gives a salute, Omri, regretfully, shuts the door. I believe Omri was tempted to keep him but it was too complicated. Little Bear walks up and asks him for :

1. A Bark of a tree

2. some twigs

3. soil 

All these were needed to make the longhouse, a type of Native American house, Little Bear wanted, then Omri brought an ax for the Indian and then he left for school.
