Help with Brittle Morale

function findStrongestEnemy(enemies) {
    var strongest = null;
    var strongestHealth = 0;
    var enemyIndex = 0;
    while (enemyIndex < enemies.length) {
        if (enemies[enemyIndex].health > strongestHealth) {
            strongest = enemies[enemyIndex];
            strongestHealth = strongest.health;
            enemyIndex += 1;
        }
    }
    return strongest;
}

var enemies = hero.findEnemies();

if (enemies) {
    hero.say(findStrongestEnemy(enemies));
}

I cannot work out what I am doing wrong! My hero just says the name of the first ogre rather than the one with the most health. I’m sure I’m missing something very simple but I cannot see what it is! Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

The enemyIndex += 1; should be at the end of the while loop—after the if statement and not inside of it.
