Question

Answer the following question briefly:

Did Private Quelch’s day to day practices take him closer towards his goal? How can you make out?

Answer 1

Private Quelch’s day-to-day practices might have not won him a commission in the army but it was not the end for him. Whenever he spoke, the squad listened to him in a cowed, horrified kind of silence. Instead of being nominated for a commission, he was nominated for permanent cookhouse duties. But everybody believed that his nomination for the commission was just a matter of time.
