The NCO pulls Angel along by the ear, the soldier Angel is to be given a good corporal punishment, very severe one it seems, even if there is no reason for him to deserve the punishment It seems the non-commissioned officer does not want to wait another year for a new uniform to be handed over to the soldier if he is not ready to position himself for the punishment he deserves. Even if it’s just for training in order to strengthen his courage and strengthen his muscular body, it seems its right to give a good and severe corporal punishment to the young man. Angel in this first session is flogged hard with the cane on his bare ass while lying over the marshal's desk.
