During the time Beowulf was written, lineage was greatly valued as it determined a person's status, reputation, and potential for greatness. By questioning Beowulf about his lineage, Hrothgar's soldier was assessing Beowulf's worthiness and qualifications to fulfill his mission of defeating Grendel. This interaction highlights the importance of ancestry and heritage in shaping a person's identity and societal role in that historical context.

A GI is a nickname for a soldier. So, your question is asking what a soldier helped a soldier to do.
What a stupid question.
a belief in fate. a taste for boasting. pride in loyalty. and a desire for fame. are qualites of the pagan warriors. Beowulfs quote- I swam in the blackness of night, hunting monsters out of the ocean and killing them one by one; death was my errand and the fate they have earned. Its revealed later in the story that while beowulf was being consumed by a monster, a lone soldier defended him. Thus demonstrating loyalty and bravery. The lone soldier was to be king after beowulf died from the encounter.
