The Salamander

  The signifigance of the salamander, is that salamanders, are known to relate to fire, and in this particular book, the emblem Montag wears is the salamander. I think more personally that the salamander is the flame, every time he burns a book.

 Montag in a way can be a hero, the way that he panics at first is not. A shocking twist, anyone who would come home at night to see their wife passed out drugged on a bed would freak out, the fact of the matter is that he did save her, although she may never realize that what he is saying is to be true, it unsurprisingly is.
