A comrade of Yossarian’s, Dunbar initially tries to prolong his life by seeking boredom (since time seems to go more slowly when you are bored). Dunbar eventually becomes disillusioned with the group’s bombing runs, especially after Cathcart demands they bomb an undefended village of civilians. Dunbar is later “disappeared” by military officials for his insubordination.
