Is there a mistake in any of 3 sentences?
I want it to be natural.

Don't bad-mouth the school to people who plan to attend.

I hope one day someone mistreats you the way you have me. I've learnt to keep my cool when you mistreat me.

Was he higher up than you when you both were in the army?

Thank you in advance
