Importing a piece of equipment requires a cumbersome process, such as declaration, request for instructions, congressional appropriation, weapons inspection, and reporting, a series of procedures, even last year.
However, now is a time of war.
During the war, everything must be kept simple. Whatever the army needs, you have to buy anything, even if you borrow money.
Especially now, this war must be won, and Major General Wuward has a special trust in Nathan, so please contact Nathan.
Because the Navy is really too busy, there are so many things to deal with every day, this suddenly comes up with the early warning aircraft, of course it is most appropriate to ask Nathan for help, after all, Nathan is familiar with this place.
So, with Andrew, Nathan walked into Miramar Air Station again.
"Hey, everyone, see who is here." As Nathan walked past the rows of fighters, suddenly someone shouted.
Hearing the voice, Nathan looked over and saw the instructor who used to be in the VF124 squadron, Lyman.
Lyman stretched out his hands enthusiastically and gave Nathan a hug: "You are welcome back anytime, this will always be your home."
Nathan's heart was very moved, and then I looked at it again. Many of the companions he had known were rushing towards him and soon surrounded him. Everyone's heart is full of admiration for Nathan.
Nathan can drive a transport plane to rescue his hostages. This alone is enough to win everyone’s support. Although for some reason, Nathan has never regained his military status, everyone believes that everything will pass. Nathan will still be back.
"Thank you." Nathan's heart was filled with emotion. He never regretted anything. As long as he did, he must be prepared to bear it. After all, no president can allow disobedient soldiers under his command. Don't poke other people's backbones.
"By the way, Nathan, what are you doing now?" Lyman asked.
There are not many fighters stationed here. Except for the refurbished carrier-based aircraft wing on an aircraft carrier, the rest are gone. After all, the situation in Hokkaido is tense, and the dispute in Afghanistan has caused the U.S. Navy to enter the Indian Ocean. In this way, in the Far East, in the Indian Ocean, in Europe, the U.S. Navy is busy.
Therefore, President Carter is reluctant to get into a fight in Argentina. He wants to resolve this matter peacefully. It is justified by someone else. However, he is still too naive. If a dog bites a bone, will he let it go again?
Nathan thought secretly, and then said, "I want to find the commander of our base."
Here, the commander of the base is already the highest rank, he can only find the commander of the base, and no one else can find it.
Who knows, Lehman's words excited him: "The commander of the base is talking with Lieutenant General Thomas."
Lieutenant General Thomas? Nathan remembered that when he first came, he had met Lieutenant General Thomas. At that time, under his suggestion, the first time he piloted a Tomcat fighter, he shocked everyone and showed his flying talent. .
Although I haven't seen this old general many times, I know that Lieutenant General Thomas has been secretly caring about him. Now, when he is about to see this general again, Nathan's heart is full of excitement.
"Just yesterday, we got the amazing news that our Falkland Islands were taken by the Argentines by force." Just walking outside, Nathan actually heard the voice of the Iron Lady, with confidence inside: "And Just today, we have decided that we will send our fleet to take back our islands! The Falkland Islands have always been our British territory! After consultations at the Cabinet meeting, we are ready to proceed with this by means of full approval. A war! We will send an experienced Rear Admiral Woodward to be the commander-in-chief of this operation. We are mobilizing for war, with three aircraft carriers as the core to form a task force, a total of 39 warships, 80 Tomcat fighters, 58 helicopters of various types, 3,500 Marines. Set sail from Portsmouth and Gibraltar, and use our force to resolve this dispute!"
"We are very disappointed. Our ally, the United States, has not expressed its position so far and hopes for a peaceful settlement. Here, I emphasize that we, the United Kingdom, will never accept any mediation unless Argentina completely withdraws from our Falkland Islands. Otherwise, we will never have any room for concession!"
"Our president, I really don't know what I'm thinking!" At this moment, Nathan heard the voice inside, and then realized that the two were watching a TV broadcast.
Now that the broadcast is over, the voice of Brigadier General James Watkins, commander of the base, was heard: "When this fact is clear, the Argentines are invading, and the president has not even accused him, and hopes that it can be resolved peacefully. ? Our peaceful president!"
"James, you have to know that we are all soldiers. We must obey orders as our bounden duty. The army does not interfere in politics. This is an iron discipline. After all, we are not young anymore and cannot be as smart as Nathan." The voice of the old general came, it was Thomas.
"Report." Nathan yelled from outside.
Although Nathan is no longer a soldier, it seemed better for him to knock on the door, but he still chose to call a report. When he heard his voice, an exclamation suddenly came from inside: "This Voice, is it Nathan?"
When the adjutant opened the door, Nathan walked in and saluted the two of them: "General Thomas, General James, I'm Nathan."
"Very good, very good." Thomas looked at Nathan and said, "Although you are no longer a soldier, you still look like that soldier. I like it, Nathan, don't worry. When the president gets out, I will immediately Just transfer you back to the army, who is this young man next to him? Why do I look so familiar?"
Although the president's order is to be executed, dissatisfaction with the president can still be expressed. Thomas also complained casually. Now, he is looking at the young man behind.
"Andrew, the pilot of the British Navy Tomcat fighter plane, and at the same time, his Royal Highness." Nathan said.
If he was a prince, he would need a lot of servants. Now, Andrew is an ordinary soldier.
"Well, the British royal family really has a kind of chivalry spirit." General Thomas said.
In the United Kingdom, there are royal families, nobles, and chivalry. Just like the previous war, once there is a war, the children of the nobles will go first. For them, this is a kind of spiritual sustenance, until more people die later. I was numb, afraid, and didn't dare to rush forward.
"I have seen two generals." Andrew also saluted.
"Nathan, you brought Andrew here. It's definitely not an old story. Let's talk about it." General Thomas said.
"I want to coordinate. From our navy's order, let the British navy four E-2C early warning aircraft, or loan from our equipment to the British navy first." Nathan said.
"Puff!" General James spouted a mouthful of water.
