Arms and the Man

by Bernard Shaw

Published 30 September 1991

A soldier on the run climbs into Raina's bedroom. She shelters him, but then discovers that, unlike the heroic officer to whom she is engaged, he despises war and carries not ammunition, but chocolate. When the 'chocolate cream soldier' reappears after the war, the consequences for Raina and her family are unexpected and amusing.
