Lawrence quickly went over his life as a soldier from recruitment to retirement. At the same time, he gave the students some lessons in patriotism. Then, he briefed them on the training schedule. They would train from 7:30 am to 11:30 am and then from 2:30 pm to 5:30 pm.

At the end of the training, there would be a bonfire party.

Just then, the bell rang, signaling the end of class. Lawrence said, “Training starts tomorrow. Since it’s your first day tomorrow, I hope to see all of you present half an hour earlier than scheduled. Gather at the field at 7:00 am sharp. Do you hear me?”

“Yes, sir.” The students didn’t look too happy at having to gather a whole hour earlier than the time their

classes usually started.

“Yes, sir!” the students shouted.
