My Brother Sam is dead point of view

Authors Note- I wrote about the big points of view in the story Sam and his dad had

Mr. Meeker, Sam's dad thinks Sam's going to die and that's why he doesn't want him going to war. He's always yelling at Sam because he cares about him and doesn't want him getting hurt.  Mr. Meeker is mad at Sam for taking the Brown Bess because they used that gun for protection and now Sam's got it with him in the war. Later on in the book the Continentals come to Mr. Meeker's house and threaten to kill him because he thinks he's lying about their gun.  Sam and Tim come back and see their dad standing with a small cut across his face.Sam ends up running away again after seeing his dad like that. He doesn't know that his dad cares about him so much because the only reason he yells at him is because he doesn't want him getting hurt. 
 Sam's wants to go to war but his dad doesn't want him to. He thinks his dad hates him because hes always yelling at him for wanting to join the army. Sam doesn't like his dad because of that but his dad just doesn't want him getting killed. Sam ends up joining the army later on in the story. After joining the army he and serving for awhile he dies because of getting captured.
