Chapter 72 Honours

Chapter 72 Award

Parks was indeed pulled away by Wales, because Wales heard that Parks helped Nixon find some good wine. The soldiers of Company E are now wandering all over St. Mary de Montt. After St. Mary de Montt was captured by a battalion, they could not stop the guard company E to search around. This process lasted for three days.

In the underground wine cellar of a manor in St. Mary de Montt, Wales opened an oak barrel under the guidance of Parks. The smell of wine came to my nose, and I couldn't help but make Wales pout.

"You are so impeccable, so perfect!" Wales exclaimed and couldn't wait to put a pot in his own military kettle. "I can't help it. I have to taste it." After saying that, he took a big sip, and then couldn't help sighing, burp comfortably, and then handed the wine jug to Parks.

"This is the best brandy I've ever had! Do you want to have a bite, too?"

Parks took it over, took a sip, then nodded and smiled, "It's really good wine, fine Cognac. Harry, you're lucky. Such a big bucket is enough for you to drink.

"No, no, this is what the two of us found. I won't take advantage of you!" Wales shook his head and said, "We are half each, and so much that I can't drink alone."

"Okay, but we have to load the wine in the car first." Parks doesn't care about this.

The two carried the wine barrel into the jeep, and suddenly heard a sharp whistle. It's the sound of mortars.

"False down." Parks carried Wales' shoulder, pressed him to the ground, and quickly lay down.

"Boom--" and the bomb exploded ten meters away from the two.

"We are targeted! Harry, come on, get in the car!" Parks got up, jumped into the cab of the jeep, started the car, and Harry also climbed up at this time. Parks started the car, stepped on the accelerator, and the car rushed out.

At this time, there was another sharp whistle, and then with the explosion, it exploded at the place where it had just stopped. It seems that the Germans did aim at the two. And they quickly calibrated the target position and hit it accurately. If the two of them hadn't run fast, they would have met God with the bucket of brandy at this moment.

The shell chased the two people and kept firing, and Parks's driving skills finally played his role. He rushed left and right on the road that was not wide, avoiding the crowd and running to the secluded places and high buildings. Finally, it left the shooting line and shooting range of the mortar.

"Ga--" and the car stopped in an alley. The two of them looked at me, and I looked at you with an embarrassed face, and I couldn't help laughing.

"Fortunately, Parks, otherwise I would have been the first American officer to be killed by the Germans for looking for a drink." Wales patted Parks on the shoulder, and a smile in his eyes expressed his gratitude.

"It's the two of us!" Parks answered with a smile.

This pursuit has brought the relationship between the two to a higher level. Originally, Wales just wanted to find some good wine with the hands of Parks. The two used to have a lot of intersections in E Company, but now, they are like old friends, talking and laughing.

"Now, where do we hide the wine?" Parks took a look at Wales, "If I think about it, only Lianbu is a better place. It can't be hidden in the row. Those greedy worms will make us unable to see the wine residue."

"I think so, and I think Lianbu is a very good place to hide wine. You know why." Wales smiled at Parks.

Parks nodded tacitly: "The biggest advantage of the company is that company commander Winters doesn't drink, but we have to divide the wine into three parts. If we don't give Nixon a share in advance, he will stay in Company E, and may not even return to the camp."

Wales nodded: "You're right, Parks, let's go!"

The car restarted and sped in the direction of the company. Parks is right. Since Nixon knew that Wales and Parks were looking for wine, he stayed in the company all day and didn't go anywhere.

"Are you sure you won't complain if you don't go to the battalion headquarters?" Winters smiled at Nixon, who was absent-minded and looked out of the window from time to time. Major Horton has returned to the battalion. He took over the second battalion, and Lieutenant Colonel Stry returned to the regiment headquarters.

"He is worried now. Stry has left him a big mess. He has been busy enough these days. He can't take care of me anymore. I'm just an intelligence officer." As Nixon spoke, he heard the sound of the car engine.

"It's Harry and they're here!" Nixon smiled and said, "Do you know why I lent them the jeep of the battalion? That's why. See, they're coming!" He smiled proudly, and he looked like this.

Winters wanted to say something else, but Nixon had strode out of the barracks. He couldn't help smiling and shaking his head.

"Welcome, I feel like I'm welcoming the triumphant warriors!" Nixon strode forward, then hugged Parks and Wales, and couldn't wait to look at the back seat of the car.

"It must be good wine." Nixon's eyes are very unique. After all, he has been drinking good wine for many years and is full of experience. "I guess, looking at such a oak barrel, it should be brandy!"

"Yes, it's a high-quality Cognac brandy." Parks nodded.

"Oh! Harry, you're lucky," Nixon couldn't help showing jealous eyes. "Maybe Parker's vision is too unique. Maybe I should go with you."

"Do you mean you want a piece of the pie?" Wales smiled and said, "Then help us move the barrel in."

"No problem!" Nixon answered very simply.

The three of them moved the wine barrel into the headquarters of Company E. Winters looked at them with a smile and shook his head and said, "Harry, are you sure it's a wiser way to put it with me?"

"Yes, they have a lot of reason." Nixon replied for Wales, "It's much safer to put it with a non-drinking company commander than with a captain of a drinking battalion."

Parks and Wales watched Winters shrugged and smiled.

"Okay, I agree!" Winters nodded.

At this time, Nixon had already opened the oak barrel, filled a bottle with an empty bottle, and couldn't wait to take a sip, and then it was like the expression of Wales's first taste of this barrel of wine. He clicked and sighed: "It's really good wine. Parks, I love you so much!" Then he raised the bottle to Harry and said, "Of course you, Harry, I didn't expect you to share with me."

"Okay, Parks, go and find Compton." Winters said to Parks.

"Okay." Parks was ordered to leave.

At this time, Nixon said to Winters, "Have you approved it?"

"Yes, I want them to know earlier that this is the first wartime award, which I think is of great significance to my brothers. This can boost our morale. Winters nodded, "Now is the right time."

Wales said aside, "Is it the Battle of Brekut Manor?"

Nixon nodded and then said to Wales, "Help me move the barrel. I don't want to share another share." With that, the two of them worked together, hiding the oak barrel behind a cabinet and covering it.

Sink also attached great importance to this award. In order to boost morale, he decided to hold it in the square in the town. In order to prevent the attack of German snipers and mortars, he sent a whole company of F Company to sweep the outskirts of the town to ensure safety. The main officers of the regiment and all the soldiers of Company E will participate.

Winters was awarded the Wartime Merit Service Medal; Parks, Compton, Gnery, White and Toy were awarded the Silver Star Medal; Lipton, Maraki, Lanny, Ligt, Guth, Chris Denson, Carber, Gordon, Eubanks and Ruiz were awarded the Bronze Star Medal; Pupian was awarded the Purple Heart Medal.

Sink delivered an enthusiastic speech at the award ceremony, and he will not let go of this excellent opportunity to improve morale.

"God, can you be more concise?" The pie Kendi below couldn't help muttering in a low voice.

"Pyconti, are you jealous?" At this time, the big cow Lan Daman beside Pai Kandi suddenly frowned at Pai Kandy. Obviously, the big cow's eyes shone with envy.

"No, it's definitely not jealousy!" Pakanti glanced at the big cow Landauman, "Are you jealous yourself?"

"I'm envious!" Daniel couldn't help squeaking, "He can even get it. If it weren't for Parks, he would have found a way out in Normandy now."

As the two were talking, they could hear Winters' order: "Disband!"

"Thank God!" Kanty said something.

Landorman's eyes were fixed on Carbo, who was complacent and looked at the medal on his chest from time to time. Yes, he was so proud that he even forgot the French man who was shot by him.

"I think I should hang one too!" Randerman said to himself. There is more than one person who thinks like him, in Company E.
