Chapter Two is when the reader is introduced to the main character, Billy Pilgrim. Vonnegut does a great job of giving the reader a charcterization of Billy. We learn he is born in 1922 and is an optometrist. He has two children and a wife named Valencia. We also learn some personality traits of Billy. One of those traits is "he never got mad at anything" (30). The reader also learns some unsual and exciting experiences that Billy has gone through in his life. One event was being abducted by Tralfadoremians. He was in World War Two and survived the bombing in Dresden. The second chapter was really an introduction to Billy and his life.
