May be a bit too tired to have seen that meaning behind that

(I also don’t know if Kathol rift would be interested in this? If you’re not, sorry for pinging you!)
Usually when authors try to slip into the mind of someone in third person they let the pronoun hang like this, “The commando was given a chocolate cake after the integration, a sugary treat that was frosted to perfection. The cake floated on the tongue and—oh! The texture gliding from one side to the other—it is truly divine, how could anyone make something so tasty? There must be more somewhere, anywhere! Maybe the chef’s around...”
I mean, how Kathol wrote is was good too! His way leaves more mystery in what the Commando might be thinking and is probably better for that whole “feral” feeling.
