'shouted at' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both to do with communicating as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'soldiers briefed to accept also' is the wordplay.
'soldiers' becomes 're' (Royal Engineers).
'briefed' becomes 'primed' (I've seen this before).
'to accept' is an insertion indicator.
'also' becomes 'and' (both can mean in addition).
'primed' placed around 'and' is 'primanded'.
're'+'primanded'='REPRIMANDED'

'being' is the link.
