Chapter 257 The cutest person
The overall evaluation of Parks that Mr. LaBov knew from Winters was similar to that of the two generals, but he still noticed the friendship between Captain Winters and Captain Parks, which was involuntarily revealed in his conversation. And it is even more precious. Judging from the addition of Captain Nixon next to them, the relationship between the three is like old friends.
And the soldiers' evaluation of Parks is the key. No matter how much an officer likes his boss, if the soldiers don't like it, then the officer must not be a good officer. It's not that LaBov has not met such an officer, but it is obvious that Captain Parks will never be among such officers.
Every soldier in Company E, who rested in Baston, showed respect and intimacy for Captain Parks from their mouths and eyes. Many soldiers don't use the rank of officer, but "top" when they call Captain Parks.
Mr. LaBeouf was surprised by this name. He said with great interest to a sergeant named Granary, "What did you just say? Do you call Captain Parks 'Captain'?
"Yes, do you have any questions?" Instead, Gnare looked at Mr. LaBov incomprehensible.
Labof smiled and said, "No, no, I'm just very interested. You know, if we express respect for an officer, we usually call him a military rank or position."
"There's a reason, Mr. LaBov!" A sergeant next to him smiled at him, "Do you know that after the Normandy landings, our E company carried out a rescue mission in a row?"
This Labeuf had heard of it from General Taylor and Captain Winters, and before that, he also saw relevant reports. In that rescue mission, Parks led 12 people to sneak into the rear stronghold of the German army, defeated one of the German platoons, and rescued all U.S. prisoners of war (except one The man was finally killed), which shocked the whole United States at that time, and LaBov was still interviewing on the Pacific battlefield. After seeing the relevant reports, he became interested in Parks.
"I know, it was a very successful rescue mission, very beautiful!" Labove nodded.
"We were involved at that time." Li Gaote laughed and said, "We killed Colonel Haight, the commander of the German army, and captured a lot of Luger pistols. God, that's so beautiful! Several of us got Luger!"
"Well, Sergeant Li Gaote, can you talk about why you call him boss?" Obviously, when Li Gaote was happy, he was a little off topic. He was very excited to mention his achievements.
Li Gaote stopped laughing and tilted the corners of his mouth and said, "At that time, there were only twelve of us. No one knew what the result would be, and many of us thought that this was to die, which was a completely impossible task. Therefore, we feel like a group of boats driving rotten wood on the Atlantic Ocean. Under the leadership of a leader, we are ready to find a huge merchant ship and try our luck. Hey hey, I thought of the word 'head' at that time. It's really good. He is our leader, and we won. It feels like a gambler suddenly won tens of thousands of dollars with a few dollars. That feeling is really exciting!"
"That's it?" LaBov also expects a legend or a journey.
"Yes, and in the later Operation Black Panther, we strengthened this concept. We only had one platoon. Under the leadership of the leader, we hit the German army hard, let them kill each other, destroy their arsenal, and rescue the British. We all know that the British are arrogant, but they bow down to the boss and obey. It feels really good. But the brothers don't think it's a gambler's luck, and the person who leads us is the boss, which is why we are willing to call him the 'head'. Li Gaote talked about this and seemed to be talked about.
Of course, what he said was a little confusing. Although he did not make it clear why he called the head of Parks, Labof also guessed the reason. Parks was like a pirate. His men gathered a group of outlaws and waited for his orders at any time, ready to die in the sea full of danger. Attack. . That is to say, these people don't care what Parks will do now. They will only follow his orders and do without complaint. Even if they know they are going to die, they may still scramble to do it.
"Li Gao Te is right!" A soldier named Maraki also said, "I have participated in the tasks performed by the boss. Of course, my shooting is not good enough. If it is good enough, I may also participate in the task of shooting German Lieutenant General Bittrich. Then there will be nothing wrong with Sifudy. I'm much calmer than him, right? Xifu brother!" After Malaki finished speaking, a provocative soldier who sat far away shouted, and then smiled proudly.
"Well, you're better than me. You should have been on that mission, so the person who finally won the excellent service cross should be yours, Malaqi!" Xifudi shook his head and said, "I'm just lucky than you!"
Labove smiled and nodded. He liked the brotherly friendship between the soldiers in the company. Without any obstacles, they could talk freely and express whatever they wanted.
"Well, now I have a relatively high requirement, but I hope you don't refuse me!" Without waiting for the brothers of Company E around him to speak, LaBeouf said to himself, "Well, I hope you can use one sentence to evaluate your Captain Parks, that is, your boss, to say what you want to say most!"
"Good idea!" Granari laughed, and then he raised his hand and said, "He is a person worthy of our respect!"
"An excellent commander!"
"Perfect soldier! Oh, I really can't think of any sentence to describe him. Well, he is a soldier and perfect!" This is the words of Randowman.
"The nemesis of the German army!"
"Hitler's nightmare!"
"Brave and fearless are our example. He always rushes forward, and he can always lead us to victory. He can also let us save our lives again and again in the battlefield. In times of crisis, he always stands up and guides us!"
"Li Pu, this is out of the rules. You said a lot of words. Mr. LaBov only asked to be described in one sentence!" At this time, Kab laughed and said, "Look at our sergeant, he has forgotten the rules. Well, it's my job. I'm the most qualified. You know, in the past, my boss and I slept in the same barracks. I could tell him when I heard the sound of snoring!"
"Okay, tell me, I'll give it to you!" Li Pu smiled and shook his head at Capo.
"What I want to say is that the boss is our brother!" When Kab said this, his face looked very serious. He looked at LaBov's serious words one by word, and it was obvious that he was very solemn.
When this sentence came out, many brothers were silent. Yes, they said so much, but the word he wanted to say in his heart was said by Carber. Carper thought he was the most unlikely person to say the word among them, but he has said it now. Brother, Captain Parks is actually their brother, whether it's in the rain of bullets, in the fire of scattered soldiers, or in the trenches to endure suffering, or patrolling with his brothers in the ice and snow. He is always among his brothers, and he can always give his brothers the courage and the confidence to win in despair.
"Yes, he is our brother!" Li Pu repeated Carbo's words, and said solemnly with the same expression as Carbo.
Labove nodded. To be honest, his heart was shaken just now. It is incredible that an officer can get so much respect and trust from the soldiers. Even on such a cruel battlefield as the Pacific Ocean, few officers have received such praise from soldiers. They are not only different from officers and soldiers, but also like integrated partners.
The last person LaBov interviewed was Parks himself. He met Captain Parks in the company of Company E. At that time, he was with Lieutenant Wales, the deputy company commander, reading the newspaper and drinking coffee. He looked very relaxed.
"Welcome, Mr. Labeuf!" Captain Parks came over and stretched out his hand to him. His impression of LaBov was not that he was shrewd or strong, but that he had affinity. Of course, he had not participated in the battle with Parks, and he could not feel the strong calmness, courage and courage emanating from him.
"It seems that you are going to be in the newspaper again. To be honest, I'm really jealous of you!" Wales made a joke, then got out of the way of a chair and let LaBov sit down.
Before LaBeouf spoke, Captain Parks spoke first. He smiled and said to LaBeouf, "Mr. LaBeouf, I hate to respect you field journalists. You are even more dangerous than the soldiers charging on the front line, and you have left a precious record for the people of the world!"
"Thank you!" When Labof heard such praise from Parks, he couldn't help but feel proud from the bottom of his heart. He was about to speak, but Parks took the lead in front of him and said, "But Mr. LaBov, if there are only commanders and no soldiers in this war, no matter how wise the commander is, he will never win the war. We all know this!"
"Yes!" LaBov suddenly had a feeling that he seemed to be led by Captain Parks on the topic.
Captain Parks still smiled and nodded: "So, I think you should write more about our soldiers. They endure the most difficult environment in the world, brave the fiercest gunfire in the world, and defend the most dangerous defense line in the world. This is not the credit of the officers, but the credit of the soldiers, so about me I have nothing to say. Like every soldier, I am doing my duty. Every soldier who fights with blood, they are the most lovely among Americans!"
Rabov's hand trembled slightly. He wanted to write something in his notebook, but he couldn't write it for a long time. It seemed that there was no problem. Only one sentence came to his heart: The bloody soldiers are the most lovely among the Americans.
He tried his best to stabilize his hands, and then wrote a heavy line in his notebook: the cutest person!
