  Commandant : One hundred centimes, a day.

• Commandant : I'll now assign you to your duties. Revely at five, you dress quickly, make up your bunks and get ready for inspection. Inspection until seven. Ten minutes for breakfast. You drill until one and march until four.

  Stanley : What about lunch?

  Commandant : You'll have that while marching. You have inspection until six. Fifteen minutes for mess. Kitchen duties until ten. Inspection until eleven. Then, taps. That is all.

  Stanley : [to Ollie]  If we have to do all that, you won't have time to forget.
