The brothers of Company E had a good time at the Alderbourne barracks.

"Look at my new uniform, I want to use that eagle's armband on my arm to spell those English girls." Luz looked in the mirror for a long time. He received two sets of uniforms, which were preferential treatment for the officers and men of Company E. And they also paid back salaries, and Lutz led at least one hundred and fifty dollars. That's a lot of money, especially in the UK, where the dollar is still hard currency and very popular.

"Lutz, how many condoms are you going to bring to London? It won't be two hundred! Tebo was talking about the inspection incident when Sauber was a company commander, so much so that Luz's 200 condoms became his laughing stock.

"Private Tibo, we are going to fight the Germans with the rifle in our hands, not for you to hold a pornographic magazine in one hand and your shengzhu in the other, and to the German devils!" At this time, Luz suddenly learned Sauber's tone and shouted loudly. Apparently this was said after a Sauber raid on a pornographic magazine that kicked Tibo.

This made the brothers around laugh. Tebo shook his head and pointed at Lutz and said, "Well, well, if you get to London, don't expect me to take you to good places, which I am very familiar with, and where you can have fun." ”

"Come on, Tibo, I've been there too!" Lutz didn't care at all, all he cared about was how to spend the money in his pocket as quickly as possible in London.

In fact, the brothers in E Company all think like this. They are just counting on how to spend the money. After all, no one cares about anything now, who knows if the gun will kill himself in the future, and then even if he has money, he can't spend it. They must first enjoy the most comfortable life in the face of their unknown fate.

Early the next morning after the Alderbourne barracks, the bugle sounded.

"Damn, I can't find my pants." Goneri looked for his pants while wearing his uniform, "Why can't you just give us a good rest?" God, I didn't go to bed until 1 a.m. yesterday. How long has it been now? Half past five, what the hell! ”

"Are these your pants?" Paikanti threw a pair of pants over, "When you take off your pants after getting rid of you, take a look at the place, I won't wait for you, you drunkard, you slept in my bed last night!" ”

When the brothers of Company E gathered, each of them had shaggy hair, sleepy eyes, and looked in low spirits, and they had been so crazy the night before, and although Alderburn was only a small village, it did not prevent them from having fun. Many people lose all the money they received yesterday overnight, and some get drunk.

"Brothers of E Company!" Winters was at the front of the line, and he seemed to be in good spirits. Without the sound of gunfire, without the Germans who could appear at any time, without the noisy noise, he slept very hard.

E-Lian's brothers looked at him and then they were all looking forward to it.

Winters did not disappoint them, bringing good news: "Starting today, we will start a seven-day vacation. ”

As soon as his voice fell, there was a cheer from the ranks. Everyone rejoiced, and Goneri even gave Toy a very affectionate hug, and then shook hands vigorously.

"The girls in London are going to love me!" Such a sentence suddenly popped up in the team, and everyone looked at the excited and a little carried away Kaber, and couldn't help but laugh.

"Karber, didn't you lose your pants yesterday?" White smiled maliciously, "London girls don't like a poor bastard. ”

There was another burst of laughter, which made Caber shrink his head in embarrassment, and then he didn't dare to speak presumptuously anymore.

"All right, GIs. I don't care what you're going to do for these seven days, but one day you have to remember that we have to get back to camp on time, that's the rule! Winters said with some seriousness, "Well, I don't have anything more to say. Have a great holiday season! ”

"Great!" That's what all the brothers say. They kind of can't wait. London is their destination, a lot of people want to go there, and judging by their treatment in Southampton, at least Londoners should welcome them like heroes. It was with this mood that many people didn't even have time to pack up, and immediately set foot on the road to London after the disbandment.

"Harry, are you going to London?" When Parks was in the company, he met Wales, who was packing his things, and then saw him pack the umbrella he had been carrying with him into his backpack.

"No, I've got to go to Ireland, I'm going to meet Betty, and I'm going to make this into a wedding dress, God, I can't wait to see Betty look in it, it's going to be beautiful!" Wales smiled, then looked at Parks and said, "What about you?" Going to London with those bastards? And then find a girl or something there? ”

"I'm not sure yet!" Parks shook his head and smiled, "So I'm here to ask you if there's anything you'd like to go to." ”

"Don't look at me, Lacey, I'm not going anywhere, I'm going to stay here." Winters looked at Parks and couldn't help but shake his head and smiled, "I'm going to spend the next few days writing something!" ”

"Writing?" Parks looked at him quizzically, "Dick, are you going to write a memoir now?" ”

Nickerson laughed, "It's pretty much the same." Dick was going to write letters to the parents of the dead and wounded brothers in the next few days, which was not a good errand and would be painstaking. But despite this, I still plan to accompany him, after all, he is not a civilian official, I am the best at doing this, I have to help him watch it. ”

"You really didn't think about it?" Winters looked at Parks and smiled, "Don't tell me you're going to stay here too. Go to London with your brothers, and maybe watch them a little bit. ”

Parks shrugged his shoulders and smiled, "Well, luckily I won a lot of money the other day, just in time for a nice holiday in London, and that's it!" Then he nodded at Winters and was about to leave.

"Lacey!" Winters stopped him again.

"What?" Parks paused. Then I saw Winters coming.

"Piper and Christenson have returned from the hospital to report to the company. I'll ask them to go to a row to find you, and you can arrange it. "They are not supplemented as recruits, they use their old ranks." ”

Parks nodded, then took his leave. But Parks didn't find the likes of Piper and Chris, and he was about to give up and leave for London. But I saw a familiar figure in the barracks, it was White.

"Hey, what are you doing here? Didn't go to London for fun? Parks yelled at him from afar.

"No, I'm waiting for you, Parks!" White walked over to him, then looked at him and smiled, "You know, those guys are the most troublesome, and I don't want to be uncomfortable with them." How are you? What are the plans not to have? ”

"Well, not for the time being, but I think let's go to London, those guys, someone has to watch it, don't make a fuss." Parks looked at White and said, "Together?" We're going to London together, and you don't have much to do anyway! ”

"That's what I mean, Parks! I'm actually waiting for your words here! White burst out laughing, "You know, I still like to be with you." ”

Parks smiled, he knew what White meant, and he knew that White was here to wait for him. In fact, in addition to maintaining a good relationship with officers such as Winters, he has the best relationship with White among the GIs.

"Alright, pack up, we're ready to go!" Parks patted White on the shoulder, "Let's get a glimpse of life in London, the girls there, and of course, the wine!" ”

Life in London is rich and varied even in the current wartime, especially in today's London, since the Normandy landings, the air threat from the German army has basically been lifted, and people's lives have returned to normal.

The 101st Airborne Division was the first army to return to Britain, since the Normandy landings. In particular, they had a very good performance in Normandy, so the newspapers in London published their heroic deeds. Winters and others who received the Cross of Merit were praised by the media as the best soldiers.

Of course, Parks and his commandos became the darlings of the media, and although they did not receive the Cross, their deeds spread far and wide, and they became the idols of many young people in London.

The e-Company brothers enjoyed the accolades, and they did receive preferential treatment from the Londoners.

Goneri was in the bar with a wine glass and Toy bragging about the preferential treatment he had received, and he carefully sorted out Toy's collar and said, "You have to wear your uniform so that the British can tell that you are from the 101st Airborne Division, you know?" When I first arrived in London, as soon as I got off the bus, I was hugged and kissed by a girl. She even invited me to her house. ”

"Don't talk about that, Goneri, I don't care about any of that, you know it's basically like this these days, being hugged by a girl and then inviting you to drink or something, there's nothing to brag about." Toy laughed, then snapped his fingers at the usher, "Two more beers!" ”

At this time, I heard a voice next to me: "Boys, are you the warriors of the 101st Airborne Division?" ”

The two of them looked back and saw that it was a middle-aged British man, who was smiling and looking at the two of them.

"Yes, how do you see that?" Toy laughed.

"Well, I saw this eagle." The man laughed, "Now all the people in London are talking about you, and you are amazing, and we are very grateful." For your valor. ”

"Thank you!" Goneri nodded, "Actually, there's nothing to show off. We are indeed from the 101st Airborne Division, E Company. ”

"E-company?" The man suddenly looked very happy, then stretched out his hand, shook hands with the two of them, and said, "I have heard of your deeds, and it is really wonderful, you have made a great contribution to holding Carrington's defense alone. ”

"Yes, yes! We fought hard with the Germans! Somebody praised their company like this, Gurnerey and Toy were very happy, they kept echoing the middle-aged man, and when they were about to publicize the heroic deeds of their company, they heard the middle-aged man say: "I heard that your company has a commando team, which successfully rescued hundreds of prisoners of war and killed all the German colonels, I really hope to know them!" ”

Goneri and Toy looked at each other, then smiled, "Sir, we're two of the commandos!" Glad for your compliments! ”
