When Jake and Bill arrive in Pamplona, the innkeeper, Montoya, informs Jake that his friends have arrived.
Montoya regards Jake as a real lover and aficionado of bullfighting, in part because Jake stays in Montoya's
hotel every year during the fiesta. Jake and Bill find Brett, Mike, and Cohn in a café. Mike regales them with
a war story, relating how he gave away another man's medals, since he had none of his own. Everyone
