"Parks!" Jennifer, the girl who slept in Parks' arms, leaned sideways, propped her head on one hand, her hair hanging down on the pillow, her bright eyes smiling and playfully watching him wake up.

"Hey!" Jennifer blew softly at him.

"Hey!" Parks responded, then turned his head and kissed the surname on the lips.

"You know what? The way you sleep is amazing. Jennifer gasped, letting go of Parks, and snuggled up, "I wish it could be like this forever!" ”

"Me too, Jennifer!" Parks has a mixed mindset about the girl. This is the most direct feeling that this girl brings to herself. But there is no doubt that during the whole relationship, this girl has a kind heart, and she is also a college student, and she must be a good partner. It's just that I'm about to go on an expedition to Europe, can I keep such an outstanding girl?

"Honey, have you thought about it!" Jennifer's head rested against Parks' chest and she asked suddenly.

Parks was clearly distracted, and he just responded with a reflex name: "What? What do you want to tell? ”

Jennifer raised her head again and looked at Parks very closely, very firmly, "What would you do if the war was over?" Will it come back here? Or go to Georgia and get a job or something? By the way, you haven't told me where you're from, do you want to tell me now? She smiled, her eyes full of anticipation.

"California Welfare Asia." "I'm ...... I don't know where I will work in the future, after all, it is still far away, after the war? I haven't thought about it yet, but I think Georgia might be a good place to be. ”

Jennifer curled up, then leaned tightly into Parks's arms, and whispered, "Parks, I hope you can come, I love you, I hope we can be together." But I can't live without this bar, it's my dad's lifeline, and I won't leave this place unless he's dead. I hope you will stay with me here for a while, after the war is over. ”

Parks gently kissed the girl in his arms on the forehead, then nodded, "I love you too, Jennefer!" ”

The two snuggled together, reluctant to speak, and it was a long time before Parks got up: "Honey, I'm going back to the barracks." He got dressed, then took a stack of bills out of his pocket, counted them, and handed one of them to Jennifer.

"This is what I won from a bet a few days ago, here is 3,000 yuan, take it!" Parks placed the bill on the bed.

Jennifer's face suddenly turned pale, and she raised her head, and her big beautiful eyes even glared at Parks with some anger and sneer: "If you want to pay for a few nights, sir, is that too much?" ”

It was clear that Parks' initiative had angered her.

Parks hurriedly said: "No, don't get me wrong, I just thought, I'm in the barracks now, and in a short time, maybe I'll be on the battlefield, and it's obviously not too suitable for me to carry so much money, I think you can help me save it, maybe you can help me plan it." ”

Jennifer turned her anger into joy, she picked up the stack of bills, and said with a smile, "How do you want me to keep it for you?" ”

"I know you're a college student, and you know how to take care of it. My dear, I'm here for my post-war capital, so don't worry, I'll definitely come when the war is over. Parks leaned down and kissed Jennifer.

From Jennifer's house all the way to the barracks, Parks pondered the question: Why did he do this? He himself was a little unclear, perhaps to alleviate his guilt. He didn't think he should have agreed to that kind girl so ambiguously. Once on the battlefield, things are beyond his control, and if he dies, it will cause great trouble for Jennifer. But even if he hadn't died, would he really have returned to this place after the war was over? God knows!

Maybe the three thousand dollars is just an excuse for not being able to find a place to stay, just to pay off the debt, in exchange for Jennefer's love debt to herself.

The brothers of Company E continued to train as usual, and as they further mastered their skills, each company had to train in even harsher environments.

Major Horton, for example, came up with a plan. He had a barbed wire fence spread out 18 feet above the ground on a field where the guts of the newly killed pigs included the heart, lungs, liver, intestines, and so on. A layer was laid on the ground under the net, and the machine guns fired flat against the upper edge of the barbed wire.

Bullets "swished" and "swished" over the heads of the GIs, and no one dared to stick their heads up unless you let your heads bloom. It's not crawling at all.

"I realized I was a snake!" As he moved forward, he came across a piece of the pig's large intestine, and he "kissed" it with his mouth, which caused him to retch, "It's not crawling, it's wriggling, damn it!" ”

Many of the people in Company E showed signs of discomfort, but they were able to persevere through the whole process, even though some of them vomited bile after finishing it.

Parks, however, knew that this should be the end of basic training. After this period, there will never be such frequent basic training again, and it should be skydiving training that awaits them.

"How has the officers and men of each company reacted recently?" As the training became more difficult, Colonel Zinke became more attentive to the situation in the regiment. If a GI can't stand it, then he's not qualified to be a paratrooper.

"It's all good, and everyone is able to persevere!" Lieutenant Colonel Stryll was smiling, and he was also pleased with the GIs' recent training performance.

Colonel Zinke nodded, then motioned for Strell to sit down, and he poured two glasses of wine, "But that's not enough, Stryll!" He handed Striele a glass of wine. Then he walked over to his desk, pulled open the drawer, and pulled a book out of it.

"This is Reader's Digest, there's an article in it, I think you should take a good look at it!" Colonel Zinke flipped through the magazine, then stopped on a page and tapped his finger on the page.

"I set a world record?" Striele flipped through the article, then looked at Zink in disbelief, "There is a battalion in the Malay Peninsula that marched 100 miles in 72 hours, setting a world record. How did they do it? ”

Zink looked at him solemnly: "I don't care how I did it, I just say that we are now." My 506 regiment. Mr. Lieutenant Colonel. As he spoke, facing the window, he could see the soldiers' camp in the distance, as well as the GIs who were doing regular training in the camp, and said in a very firm tone, "My people can be stronger than them." ”

Strieter looked at Zink, he knew he was serious, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "What are you going to do?" ”

"I want to send a battalion to compete with those guys and let them know that our American soldiers are the best soldiers in the world!" Colonel Zink looked at Streil, "You help me choose a battalion that can do the job." ”

After only a few seconds of reflection, Strieter suggested, "I think the Second Battalion should be up to the task, Mr. Colonel." ”

Zink nodded, "Yes, I think so too. The second battalion is the one that is most able to endure hardships. You're right, and I'm sure they're definitely better than Benke. ”

This is an unconventional training task.

The 1st and 3rd battalions took a train to the Fort Benning military base, where there were training grounds for the Air Force and, of course, for paratroopers. So when the second battalion watched them whistle proudly, their hearts were sour.

"The second battalion is the best battalion in the regiment!" Major Horton gave a speech before the departure, and it was clear that the regimental headquarters, the battalion headquarters, and the company headquarters attached great importance to this long-distance march in the field. If you lose, you lose face for the entire paratroopers. These were the words of Colonel Sink when he conveyed the order to Major Horton, and it immediately made Major Horton feel very stressed.

"Do you know how long this march is?" "118 miles, and we're still going to walk that damn country road, and it's going to be cold, rainy, and snowy." He looked up at the gloomy weather.

"Stop complaining, Kaber!" "If you can get through this, you'll be going to Fort Benning, where we'll be doing paratrooper training," reminded Kawood Lipp. We'll get the Silver Wing badge. ”

The Silver Wing badge is a goal in the hearts of the brothers of E-Company. The main reason why they were able to persevere in the difficult basic training was because of the paratrooper emblem - the Silver Wing badge.

"Of course, the main thing is that we want to break the so-called world record set by Benyan." That's when Parks spoke, "Why do we want to let me get ahead of us?" Or are we not even as good as the monkey-like person? "Parkes' language is a bit intense, it's an instinctive reaction, the instinct of being a Chinese soul.

"Yes, let's not let the devil see the joke!" That's when Nickerson showed up.

"Our battalion has a total of three companies, D Company, E Company, and F Company, and we will set off as the lead company." Winster told his brothers, "Let's bring as much water and dry food as we can." This is something that we will continue to add on the road. Remember, don't be left behind! ”

"Well, even if I'm exhausted, I'm going to go to damn Atlanta!" White whispered. But Captain Sauber's words were much harsher than Winster's, and he gritted his teeth in the company and swore: "I can assure you that if anyone does not complete the march or falls behind, then he does not deserve the paratrooper badge, and I will kick him out of the airborne troops." Maybe he'll just be a straight-leg Army (during World War II, the U.S. Army wore straight-leg pants). ”

These words stimulated the brothers of E Company enough. Even so, there are still many people who are uneasy in their hearts. But because of Parks' words, many people have courage: "I'm sure my brothers know how I cured Moore on the march, don't worry, everything has me." ”
