Chapter 23 Farewell
Chapter 23 Farewell
"Congratulations!" In the barracks, White stretched out his hand to Parks, who was packing up, and shook it. "I didn't expect that we still have to separate now, but this is really a very good opportunity, isn't it?"
"Thank you, White. Don't worry, I'll still be back, although it's only 30 days." Parks smiled. He didn't want to be so sad. But to be honest, once you want to leave these brothers who accompany you on the night, you will always be a little reluctant.
"After hearing about this, you will be rearranged. If I'm right, you will definitely be promoted." Carbo sighed, "Parks, you're really lucky. Will you remember ours later?"
"Shut up, Carbo!" Tibo said, "Parks won't leave his brothers. Is that so?" The following question was said to Parks. In fact, he couldn't say it, but he thought so in his heart.
Parks spread out his hands and looked a little helpless: "Anyway, I will try my best to ask for it back. You know, I have feelings for Company E, and I won't leave Company E without firing a shot. Brothers, don't forget that we are still going to Europe. Hitler's mustache is still waiting for us to clean up.
Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere seemed a little warmer.
"Parks, say goodbye to other brothers!" George Lutz said, "Actually, I don't miss you at all. I just can't see you in a month. Maybe when we jumped off the plane and fell down, it was Parks's head that hit our buttocks.
Everyone laughed again. After listening to Luz's words, Parks went to say goodbye to his brothers in a barracks.
"Parks, you still owe me money. You have made us miserable." Buck was the fiercest one. He was worried about losing to Parks that time. "If you don't come back, who can I ask to collect the bill?"
"Well, Buck, you are not as good as others!" Gernelly smiled, and then stepped forward and hugged Parks. "Congratulations, Parks, you deserve it."
Parks nodded and smiled, "Yes, it means something to me, but if I choose, I still want to be with my brothers." Then he said in a low voice, "You know, I have been staying in the United States since I grew up. It won't be long before we can go to Europe for free. What's better than this?"
" Come on, Parks. You deserve it. We are all happy for you!" Tybert shouted, "Do you know where you're going this time? Washington? Or Chicago?"
"Washington and New York."
"Wow, that's really a good place!" Someone screamed.
"Of course, the girls in New York are very generous. Hey, Parks, don't get lost! Remember to go home!" Buck laughed and said, "New York is a lost city, but I like it!"
"Stag, it seems that you have really fascinated a lot of girls!" Someone shouted at Buck.
Parks smiled and said, "Okay, guys, I have to say goodbye, and there are also a few brothers in the barracks, and I have to say goodbye to them." Parks stood up and straightened his uniform. "I'll be back."
I will be back. This sentence is easy to say, but Parks knows that it is not easy to do. After saying goodbye to his brothers, he felt that he should talk to Lieutenant Winster.
"Parks?" Nixon opened the barracks door and couldn't help but be stunned, "Send goodbye to us?"
Parks saluted and then nodded, "Yes, sir!"
Winster came over with a smile, stretched out his hand to Parks and shook it hard: "Congratulations, Parks!"
Parks nodded and then said to Winster, "Lieutenant, you know, I don't want to leave my brothers."
"I know!" Winster nodded, then looked at Parks and motioned him to continue.
"Coloe Sink said that if I wanted to, he would ask the division to reasate my rights." Parks took a deep breath and then looked at Winster firmly. "I don't want to be assigned to other units or leave Company E. You know, I joined Company E to be an airborne soldier, but now I haven't become an airborne soldier at all."
"What do you need me to do for you?" Winster understood a little, and he smiled at the corners of his mouth. To be honest, if Parks left like this, he would feel a pity.
"If possible, I want to stay in E Company after the public debt promotion is over." Parks Road.
Wonster thought for a thought, then nodded and said, "I'll help you convey it to Colonel Sink. Don't worry!"
"But you have to think about it!" At this time, Lieutenant Nixon said, holding a glass in his hand. "Not all people can return to their original units as they wish. And your publicity this time will definitely be linked to your position. Maybe when you come back, we will have to call you second lieutenant.
"If you are promoted, then you will be transferred to another company, not the E company you requested." Winster added. Aside.
"Of course, this is just my speculation." Nixon smiled and said, "If you want to go back to your original unit, you can't wait for a promotion. It depends on how you choose."
Parks smiled and said, "I know how I will choose. Sir!"
"Well, congratulations again!" Nixon and Parks shook hands.
Wonster saluted Parks and then shook hands with him: "Do it!" Then he patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'm looking forward to your coming back here."
The next morning, Parks packed up. Winster came here in a military jeep.
"Parks, I'll give it to you!" He stood aside and waited for Parks to say goodbye to his brothers, and then said to him.
"Thank you, Lieutenant!" Parks smiled gratefully.
The jeep rolled up a cigarette and then disappeared into the temporary barracks in Atlanta.
"Parks just left like this! I really can't bear it!" White looked a little gloomy.
"Don't think too much, White!" Tibo said aside, "Don't worry, he will come back. He is our brother, isn't he? It's everywhere."
"Parks is a good man!" David Landorman said, "Go back!"
"Oh, of course he is a good man, but why didn't he leave Thorber?" Gnarey said, "I'd rather leave Thorber and let him go to the scenery than Parks leave. But there is nothing we can do. Brothers, we are leaving for Fort Benning tomorrow, which is a step closer to becoming paratroopers.
"Yes, I really hope to go early, so that I can get the silver wing badge earlier!" Warren Muck said aside.
"Silver Wing Badge? I like it!" Luz said happily. He said something.
"Okay, here we are!" Winster sent Parks to the station. "I'll take you here." I have to go back to the camp!"
"Thank you, Lieutenant!" Parks Road.
Wenster nodded, started the car, and galloped towards the way back.
Did you really leave like this? Parks looked at the smaller and smaller shadow of Winster's departure, and his mood was a little gloomy. At this time, the whistle had sounded, and the conductor kept urging the passengers to get on the train.
"Are you sure you want to take the train?" The conductor looked at Parks, who was stunned.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I'll go up!" Parks climbed onto the train and sat by the window. After a bang, the train began to move forward slowly.
Atlanta's railway station is getting smaller and smaller outside the faster and faster train. There alone, in the cold air, a little bleak.
Parks looked at it again and looked back. At this time, two young conductors came over, looked at Parks, and said to him very respectfully, "Excuse me, are you Les Parks himself?"
Parks looked at them and smiled and said, "Yes, excuse me, what can I do for you?"
"Great!" The two laughed happily, "We are the conductors of this train!"
"I see it!" Parks smiled.
"Excuse me, can we take a picture with you?" One of the conductors looked at Parks expectantly and said.
"Of course!" Parks shrugged his shoulders, looking indifferent.
"Great!" One of the conductors suddenly took out a camera from behind and looked at the passengers opposite Parks. "Miss, can you take a picture for us? Please!" "
Parks looked at the opposite side, and then he noticed that there was a girl sitting opposite, a very beautiful girl. There is a smile in her blue eyes, and she is dressed in a suitable tweed skirt, which makes her look noble and elegant.
"Of course!" The girl smiled, took the conductor's camera, and looked at Parks. "Why not?"
