Lines 28–36: What does the narrator tell us directly about the Major? What can we infer about the Major from his own actions and thoughts?

"Train Time" by D'Arcy McNickie:

Major Miles boomed, “You! What’s your name? Get back
here! Want to get killed! All of you, stand back!”
The Major strode about, soldierlike, and waved
commands. He was exasperated. He was tired. A man driving
cattle through timber had it easy, he was thinking. An animal
trainer had no idea of trouble. Let anyone try corralling
twenty to thirty Indian kids, dragging them out of hiding
places, getting them away from relatives and together in one
place, then holding them, without tying them, until train
time! Even now, at the last moment, when his worries were
almost over, they were trying to get themselves killed!
Major Miles was a man of conscience. Whatever he did,
he did earnestly. On this hot end-of-summer day he perspired
and frowned and wore his soldier bearing. He removed his
hat from his wet brow and thoughtfully passed his hand
from the hair line backward. Words tumbled about in his
mind. Somehow, he realized, he had to vivify[1] the moment.
These children were about to go out from the Reservation
and get a new start Life would change. They ought to realize
it, somehow-

I watch my heart engulfed in burning flame
The colors of my childhood turn to black
I search throughout but find no one to blame
So much of my life I will not get back

The fire moves fast and consumes it all
Table, seats, photo albums, Christmas tree
I sorrow that this misfortune did fall
But it cannot destroy my memory

With everything ash, I have what I need
Your arms around me, the hope in my heart
All my possessions had filled me with greed
I now look forward to another start

Come with me love on a lovely journey
Vagabonds we both shall be—lost and free.
