Help with Questions to All Quiet On The Western Front : In portions of the narrative, Paul relates that several of his teachers

In portions of the narrative, Paul relates that several of his teachers and former drill instructors were martinets, and caused the common soldiers a great deal of trouble. At one point, he mentions that the men who were of little importance in civilian life acted more important in the military. Have you ever experienced a time when power “went to someone’s head?” Is Paul’s observation about the nature of power in powerless people correct? Why do you think that this is so?
