Chapter 184 Highest Honor on

Parks met Virginia again in Paris, and the fact that Parks won the Congressional Medal of Honor made Virginia ecstatic, and her expression was even more excited than Parks. Obviously, this is another reliable weight that can be relied on in the future for Virginia. No matter what aspect Parks develops in the future, it is an important proof.

Virelia took advantage of the relationship between the family and the military department to get permission to fly to Washington with Parks. This is relatively rare in wartime. After all, Parks is on a special plane. It is a long-range transport aircraft specially allocated by the Allies.

The plane passes through the clouds, and below is the sea. At this time, looking at the sea from the plane is very different from looking at the sea twice from the C-47. The sun is very good, and the sea is very clear. Parks's expression was a little in a trance. The sound of the plane made him feel as if he had flown to the English Channel again.

"Da-Da!" The sound of anti-aircraft machine guns seemed to echo in my ears, as well as the shouts of brothers, the sound of fire and explosion after being hit, and the parachute scattered in the air, the sound of wind and gunfire in my ears.

"Reese!" A soft voice in his ear surprised Parks, and then came to his senses. Everything disappeared. A gentle blonde beauty snuggled up to him. She gently reminded Parks softly, "What's wrong with you? What are you thinking about? So distracted? Can you share it with me?"

Parks smiled and patted her hand gently and said, "I'm sorry, I'm distracted. I'm thinking about what will happen after returning home. What will it be like in Washington? You know, this is the highest honor that soldiers have pursued in their lives. Now it has only been four months since I landed in Normandy!"

Virginia smiled and nodded at Parks and said, "Honey, I understand. I'm as excited as you are. You can always make me feel proud anytime and anywhere. I love you, Les!" Virgalia's eyes are full of tenderness.

Parks can see her sincerity. He held her hand and nodded and said, "Virelia, my honor is your honor. I hope you remember this. I'm glad that you can be proud of me. I will always do the same, and I hope you can always feel this, which makes me very moved! "

Virelia didn't say anything, but leaned her head on Pax's shoulder, like a gentle little woman snuckles in her lover's arms and enjoying a quiet and happy moment.

The plane flew in the air for a long time, because it was Parker's special plane. No one else interfered with Parks, only the pilots kept in touch with the Allies at any time.

"Lieutenant Parks, we will stop on the aircraft carrier York City, refuel, and then fly directly to the United States." At this time, the lieutenant and co-pilot of the plane turned around and said to Parks.

"Well, it's up to you. Now it's on your territory!" Parks smiled at him and shrugged his shoulders, but he suddenly asked, "Is the Yorktown on duty in the Atlantic Ocean?"

The lieutenant smiled and said, "No, they are temporarily on duty in the Atlantic Ocean. They were originally deployed in the Pacific Ocean. Now it just provides us with a place to settle down. If we are a day late, they will return to the Pacific Ocean.

Parks nodded to show that he understood. The Pacific War is at its peak, and the York City aircraft carrier itself should have been silent in the waters near Midway Island in the afternoon of June 6, 1942, with the Enterprise and the Hornet, but I don't know why it now appears in the Atlantic Ocean. Maybe for its own reasons, history There was a little deviation.

Parks has no way to know that he doesn't want to consider these problems in depth, and now the U.S. military's war in the Pacific Ocean is indeed going on like history, and there is no major deviation, which may be an exception.

After flying for a while, the pilot began to contact the personnel of the aircraft carrier. Soon, a fighter appeared in front of him. Obviously, the U.S. military plane circled in front of Parks's plane and then flew forward with the plane. It is piloting Parks' aircraft. Guide it to land.

When the plane landed on the deck, it made a harsh friction sound, and then the fuselage stopped firmly on the deck of the aircraft carrier. The pilot shouted from Parks, "Lieutenant, let's go down first. I'll talk to their captain." Then he nodded to Parks and Virginia.

Parks expressed his understanding, and then climbed out of the plane and guided Virginia down the spiral ladder. Then a sailor guided Parks into the lounge of the sailors of the aircraft carrier. The pilot and an officer went in the other direction. They wanted to find the captain and add fuel to the plane.

"From land to sky, and then from sky to sea, how do you feel?" Parks asked Virginia with a smile.

"Very good!" Virginia nodded and smiled, "The most important thing is to be with you, isn't it?"

Parks couldn't help smiling, and then shook Virginia's hand.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. A sailor stood at the door, holding a plate, and then looked at the two people in surprise. He coughed dryly and said calmly, "Sir, can you come in? I sent our coffee, which may help relieve your fatigue!" He still has some embarrassed expressions.

"Of course, why not?" Parks shrugged his shoulders and watched the sailor put down the cup and coffee pot on the plate and fill each of them with a cup. He couldn't help nodding and laughing, "Thank you very much. What's your name? Sailors!"

"Kafit, Stan? Caffete, sir!" The sailor put the backhand of the plate behind his back, and then looked at Parks, as if he had something to say.

"Is there anything else?" Parks nodded at him.

"Yes, this may be a little presumptuous!" Caffete was a little embarrassed and lost his composure. "I... Are you Lieutenant Parks, Les? Lieutenant Parks, right?"

Parks nodded and then smiled, "What's the problem? Caffete!"

"May I ask you to sign?" The sailor suddenly quickly took out a piece of paper and a pen from his pocket and put it on the table. "I know it's rude, but we are very encouraged by your deeds."

"No problem!" Parks understood that it was obvious that the sailor might have known his name from somewhere, and then had such an idea. He took the sailor's paper and pen, signed his name on the paper, and wrote a sentence: As long as he is brave and fearless, anyone can become a hero.

"Thank you very much, sir!" Kafit gave a military salute to Parks, and then was ready to turn around and leave. When he walked to the door, he suddenly saw a rear admiral coming in. He quickly stood up and raised his hand to salute.

Parks and Virginia also stood up quickly. Obviously, this is a rear admiral, and it looks like the commander of this aircraft carrier. Of course, this is Parks's guess. When the major general entered, he saluted him.

The Rear Admiral returned a salute to him, then smiled and shook her hand gently with Virgelia and said, "Please forgive me for my rudeness first. Let me introduce myself first. I'm John, the commander of this aircraft carrier. James Clark. You must be Lieutenant Parks. It seems that there is a distinguished guest on my ship today.

"Yes, General!" Parks nodded, and then some questions couldn't help but emerge. Of course, his puzzled expression did not escape Major General John's eyes.

"Do you have any questions? Lieutenant!" General John sat down opposite Parks and smiled.

"I'm sorry, I'm just a little strange. In fact, on this aircraft carrier - it's just a strange feeling!" Of course, Parks will not be stupid enough to ask the general why the aircraft carrier has not sunk now.

Major John couldn't help laughing and said, "It seems that I have to explain that I know where your doubts are. The Yorktown aircraft carrier has actually sunk. It completed its mission, fought bravely with the Japanese army, and then sank in the Pacific Ocean. Lieutenant, this is the truth. No wonder you feel this way. However, it is obvious that you missed something. In 1943, President Roosevelt renamed the CV-10 aircraft carrier York City aircraft carrier in memory of the heroic aircraft carrier, so this is the new York City aircraft carrier.

So that's it. Parks couldn't help smiling bitterly. It turned out that there was no deviation in history, and everything was his own unprovoked imagination. How can history change significantly because of the appearance of a person?

"So that's it!" Parks nodded and hurriedly said, "General, you know, I don't mean any disrespect to this heroic aircraft carrier."

"I know!" Major General John nodded and then smiled, "Actually, I have known you for a long time. Of course, I read it in the newspaper. I am surprised by your experience. It can be said that you have made a history of the U.S. military. This is worthy of the pride of all the people of the United States. So, I sometimes think that if I can command a team of marines as brave and good as you, then I can go to Tokyo!"

Parks couldn't help smiling and nodding, "Of course, if one day I can take your aircraft carrier and fight against me, I will definitely achieve your wish - to go to Tokyo."

"There will be a day, Lieutenant!" Major General John nodded to Parks.

"I'm looking forward to it, General!" Parks also nodded solemnly, "This is not polite and etiquette. I have this wish!"

"Me too!"

The two shook hands again and then smiled. Major General John stood up again and said to Parks, "I hope you can get used to the coffee prepared by our navy."

"It tastes very good."

"But I don't like it. I'm too tired of it!" Major General John smiled, then turned around and was about to leave.

"I don't like the army's supplies. Maybe our taste is wrong!" Parks laughed ahe.

Major John nodded and smiled, "Very good. I like you. You are a good officer!" Goodbye, lieutenant, goodbye, beautiful lady!"

"Goodbye, General!" Parks smiled and then said in his heart: Maybe we will really see each other again, General!
