"Merry Christmas!" On the deck of the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk, sailors lined up, dressed in Santa Claus' clothes, shouted to the others.

For American sailors, no matter what time of the day, don't forget to have fun, and now, when it's Christmas, it's a time to celebrate.

On the entire aircraft carrier, there will be more than 5,000 people, it is like a small city, and now, most of the people are roaming on the deck.

Fortunately, the deck area is large enough, and at the same time, many crew members usually do not have the opportunity to go on deck at all, and they all work in the dark lower level, which is a rare and good opportunity to relax.

On the bridge, the captain, Colonel Steve Bronch, said: "The weather is really nice today. ”

The sun shines on the sea, the waves are less than half a meter high, and the 80,000-ton Kitty Hawk is as stable as Mount Tai at sea.

"yes, there's better news today." Colonel Ted Petroburi, commander of the Flying Wing, said: "The Lone Ranger is coming. ”

The Lone Ranger, this name has spread throughout the Navy, is the radio call code of the actor Medellin Top Gun, when Top Gun became popular all over the world, Nathan's original nickname of the Eagle was changed, and now, he is known to everyone as the Lone Ranger.

When he heard that the Lone Ranger was going to be transferred out of the Navy's Fighter Weapons School, almost all the carrier-based aircraft wings were robbing him, and in the end, the 15th carrier-based aircraft wing took the lead and asked him to come over, becoming the squadron leader of one of his Tomcat fighter squadrons, and also the first Tomcat fighter squadron that has just entered service.

The other has not yet completed the refitting and is still operating the F-4 fighter.

In this way, when they go to sea for a cruise, they have to bring more accessories, which is also no way, and when the Rim of the Pacific military exercise is over, they should be able to replace the 51st carrier-based aircraft squadron with Tomcat fighters.

As he spoke, the radar reported that a helicopter was approaching its own aircraft carrier.

How many times, Nathan piloted a fighter plane to land on an aircraft carrier, but this time, Nathan took off from a nearby port in a Navy helicopter and rushed to the aircraft carrier.

For the helicopter, landing is not difficult, Nathan looked at the gradually growing aircraft carrier, his heart was full of joy, his new life began again.

Nothing can stop him from moving forward, he is a naval pilot, and the stage of his life is on the aircraft carrier.

The propellers were spinning, making a whirring sound, and when the helicopter landed on the deck, the nearby sailors surrounded it.

"Look, our star is up." A ground crew shouted: "How is Medellín, the protagonist of Top Gun?" Let's cheer for him! ”

When Nathan opened the cabin door and came down, the sailors around him swarmed up and lifted Nathan up.

"Oh no, you guys." Nathan couldn't help but shout.

It's a shot from the movie, but it's also a dangerous action, what if you don't catch it when you fall?

Nathan didn't want to be accidentally injured for this reason, the pilot was expensive, and if there was any physical injury, maybe he would say goodbye to the blue sky.

However, Nathan's words were useless, he was still thrown into the sky, and even had a tendency to throw higher and higher, and at this moment, he also felt the welcome of the sailors.

No one can get such courtesy, even if a new captain comes up, the sailors will not be so welcome, this is exactly how to welcome heroes.

Nathan is a hero, even if Nathan's other heroic deeds will not be circulated, at least now, Nathan's movies are enough for him to write a glorious stroke in the navy.

He has won honor for the navy and made the navy a branch of the military that the people love, and he has meritorious service.

"Alright, alright, let's line up and welcome our new friends to join."

At this moment, Colonel Petro Bori came down and shouted to everyone.

Bronch, right behind him, can get a captain to come and welcome a new pilot, and Nathan is definitely the first ever.

The people around them quieted down, and they spontaneously stood in several rows, and along the space left in the middle, Bronch and Petro Borry walked over.

"Report, Major Nathan Scott came to report, ready to join the 111th Fighter Squadron."

"Welcome, Major Nathan, your joining will make our carrier formation even more powerful." Bronch said.

"Major Nathan, introduce you to your new radar operator." Colonel Petro Bori said: "Lieutenant Gus. ”

Hearing the name, Nathan immediately froze.

Guss is Nathan's partner in the film, that is, his radar officer, according to Nathan's script, Gus died in an accident.

During the filming, Gus was just an ordinary actor and did not encounter any accidents, however, Steve, Nathan's real radar officer, died in an accident.

Now, this namesake Gus is standing in front of Nathan, which reminds Nathan of his old buddy, and suddenly, Nathan feels a little wetness in front of his eyes.

The two partnered for several years, and after Nathan graduated from aviation school and went to the aircraft carrier, he partnered with Steve.

And now, there is a new person.

Guss was a young man, he looked extremely energetic, and he was looking at Nathan with a pair of big eyes at this time: "Major Nathan, I am very happy to be your partner, by the way, I went to college in Boston, which is the city where you grew up." ”

Gus also adores Nathan, and also knows more about Nathan's identity, such as knowing where he was born.

"Young man, follow me, be mentally prepared." Nathan smiled and patted Gus on the shoulder.

A radar officer does not need to learn to fly, but he has to bear the same overload as the pilot in front of him, and the more outstanding the pilot, the more he needs a radar officer with good enough physical fitness.

The young man was excited: "Don't worry, I can take it." ”

"Major Nathan, today is a day off, and starting tomorrow, we will discuss the details of RIMPAC exercises." Petro Bori said, "Gus, take Major Nathan to your cabin. ”

"Let's go, come with me." Guss said, helping Nathan get his luggage off the helicopter and head in the direction of Ship Island.
