Catch-22 Chapter 27: Nurse Duckett

Yossarian and Dunbar playfully fondle Nurse Duckett and she shrieks with horror. Major Sanderson, an unsound staff psychiatrist, asks Yossarian about his dreams and diagnoses him as insane, saying, "You have no respect for excessive authority or obsolete traditions. You're dangerous and depraved, and you ought to be taken outside and shot!" Chapter27, pg. 309 Dobbs visits Yossarian in the hospital brandishing a gun and plans to kill Colonel Cathcart. Yossarian, thinking his leg wound is a ticket home, refuses to go along with Dobbs' murder plot. The wrong man is sent home in Yossarian's place and Yossarian is shuffled back into combat duty.
