college reunion of 1979
Jimmy Cross wonders if Martha is a virgin and/or if she loves him
a framed picture of Martha
Martha has sent Lieutenant Jimmy Cross a pebble that she found on the beach. It is a small, smooth stone that she has given to him as a good luck charm, symbolizing her affection and connection to him. Lieutenant Cross carries it with him as a reminder of Martha and as a source of comfort amidst the chaos of war.
Jimmy Cross loves Martha in a complex and unrequited manner. He is infatuated with her memory and uses it as a form of escapism from the harsh realities of war. However, his love for Martha ultimately serves as a source of guilt and regret, as he feels that his distraction may have caused the death of one of his men.
The woman behind the Martha motif in "The Things They Carried" is Martha. She is a character Jimmy Cross is in love with, and her memory serves as a symbol of love, innocence, and a peaceful life away from the harshness of war.
Jimmy Mack-Martha and the Vandellas
Jimmy got a new picture of Martha playing volleyball by hiding in the bushes behind the volleyball court. Martha was not happy that he did that as she did not want her picture to be taken.
it was the soccer picture and he got it from the newspaper
She likes Tate and Jimmy!!
When Martha goes with her family to her "Godbee" their neighbors are the Manning Family. Jimmy Manning is the 14-year-old (oldest son) that has a crush on Martha (and she does too)
Jimmy burns Martha's letters and pictures out of anger and frustration, likely due to a strong emotional reaction to their contents or their relationship. This action could signify a desire to cut ties with Martha or to erase memories associated with her.
The cast of Lake Jimmy - 2008 includes: Julie Logue as Martha
