John Yossarian, a US Army Air Forces bombardier, is fearful for his life as he feels his army commander is making him do more than necessary missions and lives in constant fear of being hunted down by thousands of enemies. However, a bureaucratic rule — Catch-22 — prevents him from resigning as it deems such a move rational and hence needs to be discouraged.
