The correct option is B. The setting for “An Episode of War” is the Civil War.
An Episode of War by Stephen Crane mainly focused on the lieutenant who is hit by a bullet in the war. The lieutenant had poured the coffee on his rubber blanket in an attempt to distribute. Corporals and other men were standing in a line to get their portion. He divided the coffee in equal heaps with his sword. At that moment, he cried out and the others also cried out when they saw blood upon his sleeve.
The theme of "An Episode of War" is war itself, and how it doesn't discern between soldiers and innocent people.
