In "My Brother Sam Is Dead," Sam calls the British soldiers "Lobsterbacks" as a derogatory nickname due to their red uniforms, which resemble the color of a cooked lobster. This term reflects the tension and animosity between the American colonists and the British during the Revolutionary War. Sam's use of the term underscores his rebellious spirit and his strong feelings against British rule.
In "My Brother Sam Is Dead," Sam Meeker feels a strong sense of duty and conviction about fighting against the British soldiers, referred to as "lobster backs." He is passionate about the American Revolution and believes in the cause for independence. However, his determination also brings tension within his family, particularly with his father, who opposes the war. Overall, Sam's feelings are a mix of idealism, bravery, and the weight of familial conflict.

How long has it been dead? When you buy lobster tails, ONLY, in the stores, the reason they are there is the live lobster died before they could properly package it. The tail is the only part that is safe to eat from a "dead" lobster. They have been dead for a VERY short time.
