Chapter 44 The Fusion of Mihan
Chapter 44 The Fusion of Mihan
Lieutenant Mihan served as the company commander of Company E, which reassured the brothers of Company E a little. After all, they also inquired about it from the soldiers of Company B and knew that he was still a good guy.
"He is even thinner than me." After a day of training, the brothers of Company E gathered together. Pai Kondi sat on the grass and said to Grenari, "I can't believe he is such a weak guy."
"But he is definitely taller than you." Gernelly laughed.
"There's nothing to complain about. Don't you think it's a happy thing that we dumped Sober?" White came up and shouted at Carbo, "Maybe you have a tendency to be abused."
Everyone around laughed.
Li Pu came over, looked at the crowd, and said with a smile, "Is it a farewell party for Sabo? You have picked the wrong day, because Captain Sober left yesterday. He went to the paratrooper school in nearby Chelton Fliat Village, which was also a good job.
"I'm really worried about those beautiful nurses!" Luz's mouth.
"Those nurses are not ladies. I've been there. I promise they are definitely more men than you!" Tibo interrupted. He was on the side.
Everyone laughed at Luz, and the atmosphere was so relaxed and happy. This atmosphere is definitely a kind of happiness from the heart after Sober left. And this kind of happiness will continue in E.
Lieutenant Mihan is indeed a very capable person, and he is treated equally. Although his training is equally strict, he has been initially recognized by the officers and soldiers of Company E.
As the wartime time gets closer, the intensity of training has also increased to a certain extent. Even the frequency of airborne landings is increasing, including some airborne training at night.
On December 13, the company made a night landing, and the tragedy happened. Due to the failure of the parachute, Private Rudolph in the first row? Dietry was unfortunately killed and became the first casualty of Company E. Because Parks is not very clear about what will happen. After all, even if he knows some plots, the plot is the plot and cannot represent the facts. He was still sad and watched his brother die before he went to the battlefield.
Lieutenant Mihan held a coffin-covering ceremony in Company E for Dietry. His body will be transported back to his hometown in the United States a day later through a naval transport ship.
On this day, the weather was not beautiful. It rained. Fortunately, it was not very big. But because it was already winter, the soldiers with thin clothes still felt a little cold. The cold wind swirling across everyone's faces.
"Frease your gun!" Parks shouted loudly. .
All the brothers in the row raised their guns neatly above their heads.
"Shoot!"
" Bang--" The neat and huge sound of shooting through the woods next to it alarmed a flock of birds.
After three shots, until Parks made a "shoot" sound.
"I'm so sad!" Lieutenant Mihan stood in front of the coffin and spoke to his brothers, "This is the first brother who died in my hands. He didn't die on the battlefield. This is my regret, and I believe it is also Dutri's regret. His voice is not loud, but it has a strong penetration, and the whole E can hear it clearly.
At this time, Evans walked over with an umbrella, trying to cover up the rain for Lieutenant Mihan.
"Thank you, I don't need it!" Lieutenant Mihan refused without hesitation. This made Evans a little embarrassed, but he still stepped aside, then put away his umbrella and got caught in the rain with his brothers.
"In the future, we will have brothers who will fall, maybe on the training ground, or at the gunpoint of the Germans, but what I want to say is that the lives of each of our brothers is precious. You are the precious resources of the military. If we want to eliminate the Germans, we must protect ourselves first, especially not falling. On the training ground." Mihan said very fluently. Although his tone was relatively calm, it could be heard that his mood was not very high. "I ask every brother of Company E to keep his vigilant at all times, including all your equipment. Your equipment is the second life.
It's raining a little heavy, making a pattering sound.
Lieutenant Mihan is also raising his voice: "In the future, we should love each other more on the battlefield. You will fight together in the future, and the only trustworthy thing is the brothers around you. This kind of friendship is like brothers."
I have to say that Mihan's speech is very infectious, and this is also the heart of the brothers who have been together for two years.
"Whether it's an officer, a non-commissioned officer or a soldier. My requirement for E Company is to be like a family, because we are a whole and inseparable!" Lieutenant Mihan finished the speech, then turned to face Ditri's coffin, raised his hand and made a military salute.
"Psalute!" Parks shouted loudly, and the voice passed through the rain.
All the brothers of E Company gave a standard and neat military salute.
"It's a gift!" Parks shouted, "Disband!"
This is a soldier's funeral. Although it is not buried in the earth, it has received all the respect at the funeral and the heartfelt feelings of his brothers. In the future, there will be soldiers falling one after another. There may be no such a decent funeral, and they are more likely to die in the wilderness, but their death will also make the brothers feel sad and remember them.
Lieutenant Mihan won the hearts of his brothers through this thing. Nothing can be more respectful than respect for a dead brother. Parks has to say that Lieutenant Meehan did a beautiful job. It usually takes a long time to integrate into a company, especially as a leader, while Lieutenant Mihan only takes a few days.
In fact, the saddest thing about Dietrich's accidental death was Lieutenant Winters.
When all the brothers dispersed. Winters stayed there alone, even though he was soaked.
"I can't find you. In the camp, someone said that I could find you here, so I came over!" At this time, a voice came from behind Winters. It's not your fault, Dick!"
Winters seemed to wake up from his meditation. As soon as he turned around, he saw Nixon standing behind him.
"I'm just a little sad, Nick!" Winters' face was full of rain.
"Let's talk about it when we go back. I think you have to wash it." Nixon motioned to him.
The two of them passed through the rain one after the other.
"It seems that Lieutenant Mihan has done a good job." Nixon looked at Winters changing his clothes and smiled, "But you are not the deputy company commander now. Isn't it a pity?"
"Not at all." Winters thought for a moment before replying, "I will be very happy. After all, we are now acting like a company on the right track. It's not necessary for Captain Thorber to be nervous on the battlefield from time to time. I'm just feeling sad for Dutri now. If only I asked them to check their equipment.
"You have asked them to check it! Dick. Don't think about it anymore." Nixon shook his head and sighed, "Don't always take other people's faults on yourself. You won't be able to live, like this!"
"I know!" Winters nodded, "Thank you, Nick!"
At this time, Nixon took out a bottle of wine from the cabinet, poured a glass for himself, and then took a sip before saying, "I understand now why you let Parks do your platoon as a non-commissioned officer."
Winters looked at Nixon and said slowly, "What are you going to say?"
"Parks is a talent, and you want to keep it for yourself." Nixon smiled proudly as if he had peeped through Winters' conspiracy, "I just didn't expect Colonel Sink to agree, and Parks was still a non-commissioned officer who made a mistake."
Speaking of this, Winters couldn't help smiling, which was indeed what he thought was proud of.
"You don't know that. Although you are now a staff officer of the battalion, there is some news that you can't understand." Winters said, "Do you remember General Li?"
"William? C? General Li?" Nixon nodded and said, "Of course I know. What does it have to do with this?"
Wentes smiled and said, "I just took advantage of Sink's due attitude towards General Li. I remember the last time General Li came to inspect, he met Pax alone.
"Of course I remember."
"That's it." Winters smiled and said, "General Lee met Parks alone that time. Although he didn't say anything, the 506th Regiment, including Colonel Sink, thought that Parks and General Lee had something to do with him."
"Oh!" Nixon seemed to suddenly realize, "No wonder as a sergeant in a company, he made such an event that could be called a mum, but only deprived him of his position as a sergeant. This treatment was indeed relatively light. I thought that Sink cherished talents. It turned out that he really favored General Li."
Winters nodded: "You're right. Parks is a talent. I have to let him play. I don't care what his relationship with the general is. Sink's ability to agree to my request is also based on the above considerations. I'm not worried that he will not approve!"
