In the chapter that i read the army is stationed at a camp, and sergeant Himmelstos comes to their camp. Tjaden strongly despises Himmelstos and when Himmelstos asks tjaden to stand, tjaden simply stays seated. Because of this Himmelstos tries to punish tjaden, but tjaden stays hidden. None of the other men decide to tell Himmelstos where Tjaden is hiding, then later they are sent to court. In court the judge decides that Himmelstos' behavior needs to be calmed, and tjaden and kropp who was with him are lightly punished. This is important because it gives the reader a feel of how awful Himmelstos really is. I think the author decided to have this as a full chapter because it gives the reader a good feel for the scene.
