Chapter 9
Hess? Herb swayed in his hand with the jar of peaches, and several lieutenants such as Winster and Nixon stood there awkwardly. Nixon was stunned for a moment before hesitantly said, " Company commander, that's a jar of peaches."
"Second Lieutenant Nixon thinks it's a jar of peaches." Sober sneered and then said loudly, "This is not true, second lieutenant. Your Sunday outing has been cancelled.
Sobo stepped forward, pointed to the can of peaches with his finger, and said sternly, "This is the property of the U.S. Army, which was taken out of our house without permission. And I will never tolerate anyone who steals things. Then he said to Winster, "Whose locker is this?"
"Second Officer Parks, Captain." Winster hesitated for a moment, but answered truthfully.
"Parks?" Sabo was stunned for a moment, but he still said firmly, "Get him out of training." All weekly outing permits, including officers, have been cancelled. After saying this, he took a deep look at Winster.
Winster stopped Thorber's order, frowned, and then said as if he had made up his mind, "Captain Thorber, please speak."
"Say it!" Sober was expressionless, turned sideways, gave Winster a profile, and handed the can of peaches into the hands of the orderly. "Your request has been approved."
"Parks is a good soldier." Winster said.
"Can a good soldier steal the cans in the room? Winster, it seems that there is something wrong with your vision. Sober said coldly, "Do you think it's a wrong decision to withdraw from training such a soldier?"
Nixon opened his mouth at this time, and he decided to help Winster: "Captain, this can of peaches is not a can of the army's house. Although the two look a little similar in appearance, I'm sure it is definitely not the property of the army. And we all know Private Parks very well. He is very decent and trained very hard. He is the best-performing soldier in Company E.
Sorber glanced at Nixon: "What do you mean?"
"Why don't you let Winster investigate the matter before making a penalty decision?" Nixon looked at Thorber without fear, "I think soldiers who make mistakes must be punished. But there is no mistake!" He shrugged his shoulders, which meant that it was obvious that Thorber understood.
Sover looked at Winster and then at Nixon. Without saying a word, he turned around and left. If it is indeed wrong, he can't get Parks out of this unless there is another reason. Otherwise, this is a matter of shaking the military's heart, and Sobo is not a fool.
Winster and others followed out of the camp.
"Okay, let's disband!" Sober is no longer interested at all.
After Nixon, Winster and others saluted, they turned around and left."Second Lieutenant Winster!" Sober shouted.
Winster stopped, turned around, and looked at Thorpe. He looked at him doubtfully.
"Coloe Sink thinks you can be promoted." Sober walked to Winster, took out a silver bar from his pocket, and then put it on Winster's collar. "As a lieutenant, you will be my duty officer. Congratulations!"
"Thank you, sir." A smile appeared on Winster's face. But he remained calm.
"Also," Saober said as he walked, and Winster quickly followed. "In order to test your organizational ability and leadership potential, I'm now sending you as a room officer."
"There will be some relaxing training indoors tomorrow." Sobo stopped and said, "Go and get ready!"
Wenster saluted, then turned around and was about to leave.
"Lieutenant Winster." Sober stopped him, "Maybe we can have a special lunch at noon tomorrow." I like spaghetti. After he finished speaking, he looked at Winster again and left straight away.
But Sober's words in the morning have spread. Everyone knows that Parks is going to be unlucky. Maybe it is really possible to be proposed to Company E and transferred to other units, or even discharged from the army.
"Parks, don't worry, we all know that those cans were given to you by Miss Jeff in town." In the tent, Tibo patted Parks on the shoulder.
Parks knew that he was originally withdrawn from training because of this incident. However, there was an obvious deviation in this incident, and these two cans of peaches were not stolen. And because of his outstanding performance in training, he gave Winster and others an excellent impression that things may not be as bad as before. Despite this, Parks still has some worries in his heart. He doesn't want to leave this company. Because I already feel integrated with this company and the brothers in the company.
"If Sobefei asks you to withdraw from training, I will quit with you." White also came over and patted Parks on the shoulder. He could see that Parks was not in high spirits.
At this time, several more people came into the camp gate. They were Martin, Randallman and Lipp, all brothers in the second row.
"Don't worry, it's not that bad!" Parks doesn't want these brothers to worry about themselves. Although he doesn't know whether things will eventually turn around. Sober is too self-righteous.
Parks saw David? Randolman, in order to soften the atmosphere, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Hey, Sergeant Randolman, it seems that Winster is wrong. It's not you that Thorber hates, but me!"
Everyone remembered the conversation between Randolman and Winster that night. They couldn't help laughing and the atmosphere was slightly relaxed.
"He hates everyone in E Company!" Randalman obviously has too much dissatisfaction with Sober. "Parks, you are the brother of Company E. No one can drive you away."
At this moment, the camp was lifted again.
"stand up!" Martin shouted.) All the people in the camp stood up straight.
Lieutenant Winster and Lieutenant Nixon came in.
"Sit a break, soldiers!" Winster glanced at Parks and said, "Guys, I have something to talk to Parks about."
Everyone listened and hurried out of the camp. Everyone knows that it should be about canning.
"I hope Winster can save Parks!" White went out of the camp and sighed outside. To be honest, in Company E, his relationship with Parks is the best now.
"Don't worry," Tibo said. "Winster is a good man!"
At this time, Martin suddenly interrupted and said, "Is what you just said in it true?"
"What do you say?"
"If Parks withdraws from training, are you also going to leave your brothers?"
White looked at Martin and nodded firmly: "Yes, that's what I think. What's the problem? Although it's painful for me to leave the airborne troops, I'd rather take care of my brotherhood.
Then he shrugged his shoulders at Martin and aggravated his tone: "What's wrong with my decision like this?"
Martin, who was looking at White seriously, suddenly laughed and said, "There's nothing wrong. I just want to tell you that no matter what decision you make, you are the eternal brother of E Company."
"Thank you!" White breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well, let's ask Pax himself later if there is any way for Winters to save him!" Li Pu said aside. To be honest, Li Pu was very uncomfortable. After getting along with E Company for a while, he couldn't imagine what kind of mood it would be if he had a brother left like this.
In the camp.
"Parks, can you tell me about the two cans of peaches?" Winster looked at him seriously. Parks is the best soldier in training he has ever seen, and he is very popular. Officers like such soldiers, of course, except for the jealous people like Sober. Winster absolutely did not want Parks to withdraw from the airborne team because of this.
Parks understood Winster's situation. He didn't blame him at all. It was all done by Sober. Because of jealousy, he wanted to make trouble in the second row of Winster in retaliation for being robbed by Winster when Colonel Sink came to inspect that day.
So Parks told the story of going out that night, and then said to Winster, "That's what happened, Lieutenant Winster. I think if Captain Sober is sure to withdraw me from training, I won't embarrass you."
"Do you think I'm in a dilemma now?" Winster looked at Parks strangely, "No matter who he is, as long as he is the brother of Company E, if he doesn't make a mistake, I will try not to let them be punished for no reason. It's the same for you!"
This is Nixon's mouth. He smiled at Parks and said, "Relax, Private Parks. This matter is not as serious as you think. This is just a misunderstanding. I believe that even if Captain Sober misunderstood, as long as it is explained clearly, there should be no problem.
"Thank you, sir!" Parks knew that since Winster and Nixon said so, it was estimated that the matter could only end here. Even if Captain Sober was unhappy, he would never have a conflict with Winster and Nixon because of his own misunderstanding.
Parks guessed correctly. The next morning, the processing results of two cans of peaches came out, that is, Parks, White and Tibo went out together and were punished for cleaning the toilet for a week.
When Thorber dealt with it, he told Winster that the canned peaches were too similar to the gangster, which caused the officer's misjudgment. This reason is amazing.
