Chapter 34 Emotions

Winster is a very detailed person, especially in military operations. This is also one of the reasons for his future success. Parks knows the meaning of Winster's words. And I also have the same idea as him. What is more important than this to protect the lives of my brothers to the greatest extent?

The failure of this exercise shrouded the heads of the E Company brothers like a cloud. And the brothers' distrust of Captain Sober has developed from dislike and hatred to today's distrust, which can be said to be a major change in the brothers' attitude towards Thorber. So much so that many times, the discussions in the barracks revolve around him. After all, with the continuous upgrading of training and some wind talks in the regimental department, there is no doubt that the brothers know that they will eventually appear on the battlefield in Europe.

"I don't want to go to Europe with such a commander." Gnery is the most fierce one. He is a little arrogant. He is extremely disgusted with Saub. "Such a commander will only make us lose our fighting spirit, even give us to the Germans as prisoners, or simply let the German devils kill us directly!"

"I want to pray to the Virgin Mary!" At this time, Warren Muck muttered, "I really hope that when we enter Europe, he will be hit by the Germans as soon as he jumps out of the cabin, which saves our bullets."

"To be honest, I really want to kill this guy! Maybe one day when I am impulsive, I will do it like this!" Even Xifu, who usually doesn't talk much, couldn't help opening his mouth.

In the same way as these brothers, there are not a few in Company E. Even if Parks has talked to them before, the brothers are a little restless and depressed because of the loss of their surname to Sober. And Winster obviously noticed this restlessness and depression. Although at this time, some people in Company E were promoted, such as Harris and Lanny were promoted to sergeants, and Nixon and Hearst were transferred to the battalion as staff officers, the brothers were still not in high spirits. At this time, another officer fell into Company E, Second Lieutenant Harry Wales.

"What are you going to do?" In the barracks, Nixon shook his head at Winster, "I don't know how to talk to my brothers. Even if I go and help Thorber, he will not appreciate it. Maybe he will let you do something that surprises you."

Winster said helplessly, "What else can I do? Continue to train them. At least I want to ensure that the officers at the first level of the platoon will perform well, minimize our losses in the future, and we will use them to encourage morale. Then he shrugged his shoulders and said, "This is the maximum thing I can do."

"How about Parks?" Nixon suddenly said something to Winster.

Winster was stunned and said, "What's going on?"

Nixon couldn't help laughing and said, "You ask knowingly. Aren't you going to recommend him to the alternate military academy? Why is there no news? Or has Thorber not passed yet?

"Good question!" Winster smiled and said, "Although Saab is a little uncomfortable, at least he doesn't have the courage to compete with the regimental headquarters. My report was sent directly to Colonel Sink. I believe that there will be a result soon. And Colonel Sink hopes that Parks can stay in the 506th Regiment after graduation. As for whether it's still in E Company, then I can't make the decision.

Nixon looked at Winster seriously: "Dick, it seems that I still don't know much about you. I didn't expect people like you to come up with such a way."

"It just means that you have ignored me!" Winster laughed. This is a report he wrote after the last military exercise, and it was submitted directly to Major Hurdon, and then transferred it to Colonel Sink. He knows that this is not in compliance, but he cherishes talents like Parks very much. A very good commander is the most rare and valuable asset of Company E.

As the two were talking, one of them came in and looked at them and said, "Did I disturb you?"

It's Harry Wales, who looked a little hesitant.

Nixon and Winster nodded to him. Winster hurriedly said, "No!" Then he introduced to each other: "Louis Nixon, this is Second Lieutenant Harry Wales, who has just been transferred from the 82nd Division."

Harry stepped forward with a smile and shook hands with Nixon: "Congratulations on your promotion!"

Nixon smiled and said, "Thank you, if that's a promotion!" Of course, there is no promotion in military rank, but from the company to the battalion, it is also a jump. However, he finally got rid of Captain Thorber, which was also a relatively congratulatory thing for Nixon. Anyway, Nixon was in a good mood.

"You will soon find that he is a person with no shortcomings, no quirks and no sense of humor!" Nixon joked, "He doesn't even drink. I don't know how I can tolerate him until now. Fortunately, I'm going to the battalion, and you just came!"

"Just like your friends in the battalion!" Winster suddenly added a sentence. The two of them couldn't help laughing.

"What's the matter? "Harry!" Nixon smiled at Harry.

Harry seemed to hesitate, but he still said, "I heard a lot of right and wrong."

"About Sober?" Nixon smiled and said, "We're just talking about it!"

Harry coughed dryly and then asked, "Is he a little neurotic on the wild battlefield?"

Nixon nodded with great thought and said, "Yes, if he is nervous, you will die in battle!"

"That's great!" Harry got an answer and smiled helplessly.

Winster looked at Nixon, then at Harry, walked over and nodded to the two and said, "Yes, it's a problem. Listen, if we want to discuss it, it can only be limited to our scope. Then he looked at Harry and said, "Now the brothers are not in a good mood. This requires us to stabilize the army, Harry, you know how to do it!"

"Yes, no problem!" Nixon and Harry nodded together.

The three of them were talking when suddenly the door of the barracks was pushed open loudly. Captain Sober appeared at the door. He held an apple in his hand and took a bite and was still chewing in his mouth. Then he looked at the three people in front of him with a strong doubt in his eyes. His eyes glanced one by one in front of three upright people.

After chewing the apple in his mouth and swallowing it, Saober said, "Is the second row ready?"

"Ready! Sir!" Winster said calmly.

"Call them whole team, we're leaving!"

"Yes, sir!" Winster and Harry went out.

Sover looked at Nixon, who stood upright with a smile on the corners of his mouth, frowned, and then gnawed a mouthful of apple fiercely before leaving.

At the end of May, Company E picked up its backpack and, together with the other companies of the 506 Regiment, took a stop-by train to Storgis, Kentucky. They will conduct a military exercise in Kentucky, Tennessee and India from early June to mid-July. This is the largest joint airborne exercise between paratroopers and glider-carrying troops so far. Although this is not a war, it is the closest to actual combat arrangement that the army can make.

In the station. At the station, the girls of the Red Cross brought them coffee and fried doughnuts.

"You should admit that he didn't have a chance. If he is not killed by the German army, he will do it by his own people. Several people are sitting on the grass next to the station.

"Shut up, Carbo!" Joe Toi said.

"Who are you talking about? "Sorber?" At this time, a voice came from the side, Joe Ligote. He came over and said, "He messed up an exercise. You know I often play with grenades. It's easy to accidentally blow up one."

"But they let him take charge of the command. There must be a reason!" Xifu's brother said unwillingly.

Li Gaote smiled and said, "Because the army never makes mistakes, right? Xifu brother!"

Parks knew that he could not intervene in this kind of thing. His resentment against Thorber was not formed in a day or two, and he could not be solved by himself in a few words. It may be able to appease for a while, but it can't convince the brothers for a long time. If you say too much, you may be disgusted by your brothers.

He can only get in the way, try to disperse these emotions as much as possible, and prevent them from fermenting together.

"Hey, you guys, do you want fried doughnuts?" Parks shouted at them, "The girl with the face circle over there is really good-looking."

Sure enough, it attracted their ideas. Kaber stood up first and smiled at Parks, "I knew you, Parks. Why didn't you tell me such a good thing earlier? He patted the dust on his buttocks and walked that way.

"Li Gaote, there is also a super-large breast over there. Isn't this your favorite? Think about the feeling of holding your head in the middle and eating fried doughnuts! It must be very good!" Parks looked at Li Gaote and smiled.

"Oh, get rid of it, what I'm thinking about now is fried doughnuts, not super-large breasts!" Li Gaote laughed and said, "Well, I left my girl for you, but I left the fried doughnut!"

Several people gathered dispersed, leaving only Xifudi. Parks walked over, sat down next to him, looked at him seriously and said, "Sifudi, don't do stupid things. It's okay to say this kind of thing, but it's not worth doing!"

"What do you know?" Xifudi looked at Parks, then suddenly understood, and then nodded and smiled, "I know how to do it!"
