From the way the regimental commander saluted the commander in

chief and devoured him with his eyes, drawing himself up

obsequiously, and from the way he walked through the ranks behind

the generals, bending forward and hardly able to restrain his

jerky movements, and from the way he darted forward at every word

or gesture of the commander in chief, it was evident that he

performed his duty as a subordinate with even greater zeal than

his duty as a commander. Thanks to the strictness and assiduity

of its commander the regiment, in comparison with others that had

reached Braunau at the same time, was in splendid condition.
