Chapter 418: The Second Regiment of Paratroopers
Chapter 418:
2nd Parachute Regiment of the French Foreign Legion. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
This word is so inexplicable to Xiao Mubai. He did not expect that Colonel York's mouth of leaving the Fourth Infantry Regiment would leave in this way.
In his spare time, he chatted with the recruits and guessed which unit they would be assigned to. The 2nd Parachute Regiment was also one of them, but this letter of recommendation surprised him.
It can't even be described as surprise, it should be said to be shock.
The Second Parachute Regiment may be very good, Xiao Mubai once thought about entering, but at this moment, without passing the four-month recruit training period, he entered the Second Parachute Regiment in advance in this recommended way.
This shocked Xiao Mubai too much.
In Xiao Mubai's imagination, if he really went to the Second Parachute Regiment one day, he would also go with Ilyich and Blair and enter with a victorious attitude.
The current situation is indeed unexpected.
Is this a special trick or something, Xiao Mubai thought that there were no such things abroad, and when he saw the recommendation letter, he realized that he was wrong. Foreigners may be very well-behaved, but they are also very flexible.
The second parachute regiment is good, so to speak, very good. This is a heroic unit, Xiao Mubai knows a lot about it, so you can imagine how much impact the content on this recommendation letter gave him.
The French Foreign Legion is comparable to the Navy SEALs. The Second Parachute Regiment is the only Foreign Legion unit in the French Army with parachute capability.
The 2nd Parachute Regiment has a long history, it was formed in 1948. Up to now, it has a history of more than half a century. The Foreign Legion is an army with a unique status, and the Second Paratrooper Regiment is the jewel in the crown of the Foreign Legion.
One can imagine what kind of existence the Second Parachute Regiment is.
During the Franco-Vietnamese War in the 1950s, the regiment was heavily damaged in the Battle of Dien Bien Phu and was rebuilt in the Algerian War. Since 1967, the regiment has been stationed in Calvi, Corsica, a French overseas department.
Corsica, doesn't sound familiar. True, Napoleon was once exiled here. At the same time, Corsica was also Napoleon's hometown.
The Foreign Legion has soldiers of more than 100 nationalities, about 8,000 officers and men, who wear the standard French army uniform, but show their special status on certain special accessories, the most famous of which is the white high-capped military cap.
And the 2nd Parachute Regiment is particularly special.
With nine regiments, the French Foreign Legion is one of the most prestigious and legendary units in Europe.
Among the French Foreign Legions, the most combat-ready and much-talked about unit was the Second Parachute Regiment, which was able to reach any designated place in the world within 24 hours, and was known for its ability to fight on hand.
Being able to enter such a special existence, Xiao Mubai couldn't help but be happy.
Let's not talk about whether Xiao Mubai is willing to leave the Fourth Infantry Regiment and report to the Second Parachute Regiment, first of all, back to Colonel York's letter of recommendation, why did he write this letter of recommendation, is there no secret in this?
Xiao Mubai couldn't help but wonder if there was any deal in this, after all, since the morning, the development of the whole thing has been off the trajectory, and there is always a magical feeling.
Xiao Mubai did not think that he had the ability to go to the Second Parachute Regiment, although there was a parachute subject in the recruit training, and his performance was acceptable, but there was absolutely no point where he was overwhelmed by the crowd.
Among the nearly 200 recruits in the 05, 06, 07, 08, and four phases, Xiao Mubai absolutely believes that in terms of parachute ability, there are people who are more qualified to go to the second parachute regiment than him.
In fact, all newly recruited soldiers of the Foreign Legion had to go through the basic training of the Fourth Infantry Regiment, and the best soldiers were selected to be added to the Second Parachute Regiment, and the rest were added to other paratrooper units.
Since it's the best, then the selection is certain, and you can die for anything in the dark.
However, it has not been long since the 04 recruits were replenished to the 2nd Parachute Regiment, and theoretically, the French army has not experienced any recent wars and will not have casualties, so why would soldiers be selected in such a situation.
Since he was selected, why didn't he put himself in front of everyone, what the hell is the recommendation letter, is he so good.
In that case, why did he have to go?
When things go wrong, there must be demons.
Xiao Mubai had to be vigilant whether it was Bertrand and Parker, and what plans did the two have, after all, they had done something out of the ordinary when they were in the Marseille recruit assessment.
Since Captain Bertrand has a criminal record, it is not incomprehensible to suspect him now.
The two of them were now in Colonel York's office, which was an unusual thing, and when it was associated with the Second Parachute Regiment, it was obvious that there would be a ghost if it had nothing to do with it.
Maybe it's the whole thing of these two people jumping around.
In fact, Xiao Mubai really guessed correctly, but at the moment he didn't know that this was the case. If he can't figure out some things, he will think differently and from a different angle, so that he won't hit a wall.
What is currently in front of me is this letter of recommendation from the Second Parachute Regiment. The letter of recommendation has been signed and sealed, thinking of the answer just now, at this moment, Xiao Mubai has to go if he doesn't go.
If he had known that this was the case, he might have denied it before, denied that he had the ability to leave the 4th Infantry Regiment.
Although the training of recruits in the 4th Infantry Regiment is boring, it is much easier than that of the 2nd Parachute Regiment, and you know the difference between the two, even if you don't have to imagine.
Under such circumstances, Xiao Mubai seemed to have no choice but to obey, and the matter of going to the Second Parachute Regiment was already a certainty.
However, the Second Parachute Regiment is a particularly regular existence, and the barracks are in order, Xiao Mubai can hardly imagine that he will not feel bored in that kind of life.
Freedom, at this moment, Xiao Mubai misses freedom very much.
Because of the need for training, he put in time and energy, and paid unimaginable ordeals. The Foreign Legion is not the starting point of Xiao Mubai, it will only be a stop.
Although the attractions are beautiful, you can't linger and eventually have to leave.
If you can go on a mission, the 2nd Parachute Regiment is not bad, otherwise you will stay in the isolated island of Corsica, neighbors with heaven and earth and the sea, and you will fade out of the birds.
The Second Parachute Regiment, Xiao Mubai had never been so close, and seemed to see it waving at him.
Xiao Mubai ignored Bertrand and Parker next to him, stared at Colonel York in front of him, raised his head and replied, "Report to the sir, I obey your orders." ”
This answer not only surprised Colonel York, but also surprised Bertrand and Parker, who were watching coldly.
That's it, so I agreed, didn't ask anything, just agreed?
