"So I promised him I'd have this silly cocksucker shot after the war." (pg.141)
This quote from Paul Lazzaro is foreshadowing Billy's death. Lazzaro promised Weary that he would avenge his death by killing Billy. Billy sees his death. He describes it as him seeing purple and hearing a buzzing noise. Later on, Billy states that he will always die on February 13, 1976. Lazzaro will come back to shoot Billy. He will keep his promise to Weary. Billy accepts his death because he learned from the Tralfamadorians that he will always be alive.
