Question

Generals die in bed. Chapter 1: what happens when the orderly sergeant enters the room?

Answer 1

First of all, do you mean "orderly" as a description of the sergeant's assignment or as a description of his character?

Secondly, has it already been determined that the general is dead? If not, the sergeant will have to discover that things are not as they should be. Then, he alerts whatever medical personnel he can. Then, they relieve him upon arriving.
