Early the next morning, the sound of the military horn woke up all the tired officers and men of Company E who were still in their dreams. The makeshift barracks were full of busy sights, busy packing their bags and the rewards they received yesterday from the welcoming crowd.

"Why do we all get up so early when we're all in the UK?" Kaber looked around and looked at the GIs who were busy, "Can anyone tell me why?" ”

Lutz put his backpack in order and slung it on his shoulder, he looked at Kaber and couldn't help but smile: "Why can't you get up so early when you arrive in the UK?" Can you tell me why? If you can get it, I'll reward you with a piece of chocolate! ”

But except for Kaber, no one is complaining, and the brothers are busy with their own work. Then line up outside. The sound of passwords and whistles echoed over the barracks. It's very reminiscent of the old days. Listen to the bugle, get up, get out of the morning, and then it's the usual training.

"It reminds me of Takoya." White stood in the middle of the line, smiling, "It feels like it's back to two years ago." ”

"Do you miss Sauber?" Goneri shook his head at him, "Seriously, in addition to Sauber's bad character, it seems to me that he still has some strengths, such as making you tired from the mountains to the mountains, and making you unable to drink a sip of water during the march at night. Well, that's why I like him! ”

"What?" White turned to Landowan beside him and smiled, "Mr. Gonorrhea said he likes Sauber. Big bull, I think you should give him a look, who of us doesn't know that what Sauber used to hate the most was Landaman in the row of E-company. ”

"Column, march forward!" Parks shouted at the front of the line, "The brothers of E-Company are leaving, and the platoon is following me!" He straddled his rifle over his shoulders and led the way as they headed to a train station in Southampton, about two miles from the barracks. From there, the brothers of Company E were to take a train to the Aldebourne barracks.

"Lieutenant!" Someone rushed to the front of the line and shouted at Parks.

Parks looked back, nodded, and said, "Marachi, what's the matter?" ”

"That's right!" "We found a motorbike while we were in Utah Beach, and it's obviously not very convenient to get on the train right now, so I want to say, can I ride a motorcycle to Alderbourne?" ”

Parks stopped, stood by and let the group move on, while he looked at Maraki and said, "Are you sure?" This is no joke. If you can't make it on time, I think there's a rule for you! ”

Malachi couldn't help but be overjoyed: "Yes, I was able to be on time, thank you, Lieutenant!" Then he stood there and smiled at Parks.

"Anything else?" Parks looked at him with some amusement.

"Yes......" Malaki was a little embarrassed, but he opened his mouth anyway, "Moore is going to join me." ”

"I know, how could such a thing be without Moore?" Parks shook his head and smiled, "Okay, I can't take care of this, but remember my words, be on time." Commander Zinke didn't like a late GI. ”

"Thanks, Lieutenant, you're such a nice guy!" Malaki saluted Parks, then turned to leave.

"Marachi!" Parks screamed.

Malaki stopped, turned around, and looked at Parks a little nervously, he was afraid that Parks would suddenly change his mind.

"Be careful on the road!" Parks nodded at him, and continued walking with the group.

Malaki froze for a moment, then a smile appeared on his lips as he gestured to Moore, who was waiting in the distance, and then shouted, "Man, we made it." We can go for a ride with that pretty baby. ”

By the time the brothers of E Company arrived at the train station, it was already dawn. The soldiers were a little tired, but it seemed that they were trying to keep themselves clean, and many of them had shaved their beards.

Parks' seats were next to those of Wales, while Winters and Nickerson switched places with the others, and the four of them sat on opposite benches, huddled together. Parks' seat was leaning against the window, from which he could see the clear sky outside.

"We came out of Alderburn in a car. Now we are back to Alderbourne by train. I don't know how to describe how I feel right now! Wales looked out the window, and he was facing Parks, also leaning against the window.

"You're a gambler!" Nickerson, who was sitting next to Wales, took out the bottle, then took a sip and handed it to Wales, "Someone once said that only gamblers keep comparing the past with the present and draw conclusions in their favor. ”

"Shit Gambler Mentality." Wales also took a sip of wine and handed it to Parkes opposite, "If I'm going to bet, I'd rather bet on whether I'll live until the end of the war." ”

"Then you won't lose!" Parks laughed, "If you win, then you're alive." If you lose your bet, then you're dead. Do dead people still care if they win or lose? So if you bet like that, you're always going to win. But you won't get anything! ”

"Why?" Wales looked at Parkes.

"Because if you live, this is what you deserve, and your life is your own. So you get your own, and you don't get nothing? Parks nodded, and said to Wales in a serious manner, "If you die, then you lose what belongs to you." It shouldn't have been. ”

Wales shook his head and said, "You've fooled me." ”

"It's philosophy!" Nickerson laughed, "Does Parks want to be a philosopher after the war?" ”

At this time, Winters laughed, and he looked at the three people with amusement: "It is wonderful that we came all the way from the United States to England, and then crossed the Atlantic, braving the hail of bullets and the fire of the Germans, just to become a philosopher after the war." I like it, but I know I can't be a philosopher, it's so sad! ”

Nickerson couldn't help but be stunned, then nodded and smiled, "yes, we didn't fight to become philosophers. Then he turned to Winters and smiled, "But why are we fighting?" I had to go all the way to France. ”

"To save Europe, we have come to be liberators and invaders." Parks took a big sip of the bottle, then handed it to Winters, who was sitting next to him.

"No, no, don't give it to him, he doesn't drink, have you forgotten?" Nickerson hurried to grab the bottle.

Unexpectedly, Winters took the bottle, then looked at Nexon and Wales on the other side and smiled: "Everything has to have a first time." This should be my first experience! As he spoke, he lifted the bottle and poured it into his mouth, then swallowed the sip of wine in his mouth with all his might.

"Is that so?" He held up the bottle and smiled at Nickerson.

"Of course," Nickerson took the bottle, took a sip and smiled, "do you know what my first drink was like?" It's even uglier than the way Dick looked after he drank just now. The three of them burst out laughing.

Parks smiled, then turned his head to look out the window, his mood gradually calming down. The train makes a monotonous "click" sound in the process, and the scenery outside the window is not only extended, passing by, looking from afar, the train that has been going to the city, passing through a field, green trees and wheat fields, and farmers driving ox carts, in the train speed, constantly changing this.

Parks looked up at the sky, only the sky was still clear, and the clouds were floating above it.

The sky is forever the same, when the wind blows in your ears, the hunting sounds, and the street trees on both sides are constantly flying backwards, everything is so beautiful, it makes people nostalgic and more exciting.

"Ahh Malachi sat in the side box, holding the bottle in his hand, pouring it one by one, then raised his head, feeling the fresh smell of the shop when the wind blew, "I think this is the best thing we have done, and if possible, I will ride it to London." ”

"Good idea, Marachi!" Moore turned his head to Malachi and laughed loudly as he drove the speeding motorcycle, "It's going to make those guys jealous." ”

"You can still use this baby to soak in a girl!" Malaki added.

Motorcycles are constantly moving between trucks and cars that are running along the road. The road wasn't very wide, but it was enough for the little guy to maneuver.

"Take a sip? Moles! Malaki handed the bottle over.

"Of course, I like the feeling of driving with a good drink!" Moore took it, and as soon as he tilted his head, it was a mouthful.

"Beware, damn it! There is a car ahead! Malachi suddenly screamed, and he was almost half-crouched in the carriage, and was about to jump off. Moore came to his senses and was confronted by a large military truck speeding towards them. He quickly threw away the bottle and twisted his hand desperately. The motorcycle brushed past the body of the truck.

"Die!" Malaki turned and raised his middle finger at the truck behind him.

"Damn, a good bottle of wine was wasted!" Moore was also a little annoyed, but this brief annoyance did not affect their excitement and excitement in the slightest, and even Marach waved his arms along the way, shouting loudly for a long time.

"Barracks, we've arrived!" Malaki pointed ahead.

The motorcycles roared and rushed through the checkpoint at the entrance of the barracks, so that the guards couldn't help but shout at them.

"What a madman!" The sentry shook his head and cursed at them.

The brothers of Company E had arrived at the barracks before Malachi and Moore arrived. They were housed in the original barracks. Although the conditions were still good, some of the barracks appeared empty.

Parks stood in front of a row of barracks and looked around to see that half of the brothers who lived there from September 1943 to May 1944 were no longer there. He couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Grace, beside him, suddenly said, "Lieutenant, now that we only have half of our brothers in the barracks, we have lost half of our troops in this damn little operation in Normandy, how can we survive the whole war?" Maybe we'll never get home again. ”

"It's going to get through, Bill!" Parks nodded at Gunnelly. But he himself is not sure at all, can he survive it?
