Scott Clemmons flushed at the rebuke, and Cadet Officer Nazro asked:
“Where were you a captain?”
“At the military school which I attended.”
“What did I tell you about addressing your superior? Be careful not to err again. Then you have been to a military school?”
“Yes.”
“Yes what?”
“Yes, sir. Am I compelled to speak thus to you?”
“Go ask the commandant.”
“No, sir.”
“If you were a captain, you should have known as much. I see I shall have a hard time with you, for it is no easy task to teach an old dog new tricks. Fall in line, sir, and take the position of a soldier.”
