"Officers?"
He nodded.
"Is a doctor there?"
He told us he had asked for the doctor. A soldier had pointed him out.

"What did they say?"
"They laughed and said nothing."
It seemed pretty obvious that Kazimoto had made a mistake in some way.
Perhaps he had visited the non-commissioned officers' mess.
