Chapter 1667 Ma Run in Green Clothes
A guy from the Marine Corps.
Gao Yang stretched out his hand, shook hands with Jesse Li again, and said with a smile: "Marine Corps, I like the Marine Corps. I have a very, very good brother who is from the Marine Corps. Well, actually he is not. He is a member of the Marine Corps, but he is a member of the Navy, but he is a medic and has been assigned to the Marine Corps since the day he officially entered service, so he can actually be considered a member of the Marine Corps."
Gao Yang did not say his name and skillfully avoided giving his name.
Jesse Lee nodded and said with a smile: "If you are in the Navy, then his situation should be better. As a first-class person, the Pentagon is always very polite to the Navy. Unlike us, the Marine Corps is just a stepmother." of."
There is a saying in the U.S. military circles that the first-class navy, second-class air force, third-class army, and fourth-class Marine Corps are slightly stronger than the National Guard, but only slightly stronger.
The Marine Corps is a truly independent force after World War II. This force has to cooperate with the Navy's operations, but it does the work of the Army. They have their own weapons systems. As the fourth largest military branch of the United States, no matter how you look at it, It's quite unique and important. Life should be easy, but unfortunately, the opposite is true.
During World War II, when the U.S. Army used the M1 Garand rifle, the Marine Corps still used Springfield rifles. Now, the Army uses AH-64 Apache helicopter gunships, and the Marine Corps can only use AH-1. Generally speaking, , which is the equipment that has been eliminated by the US Army, but is still the main force in the Marine Corps.
The Marine Corps has more sea and air power than the Army, but the Army cannot match it. For example, the Marine Corps has its own amphibious assault ships, and fighter attack aircraft such as the FA-18 Super Hornet that meet the Marine Corps' needs. However. The Marine Corps is still unpopular. For example, the new-generation general-purpose fighter F-35 being developed by the United States is facing a lag in development progress. When funding increases significantly, the Navy and Air Force will no longer play with the Marine Corps. They kicked out the Marine Corps. In other words, the aircraft that were supposed to meet the different needs and characteristics of the three services were now left with two types. The needs of the Marine Corps were ignored and then deleted.
There is actually only one reason why this situation occurs. The U.S. Navy, Army and Air Force are all in the hands of Congress. The Marine Corps is the only force that the White House can mobilize without the approval of Congress. Then, Congress controls all appropriations for the military.
For Congress, which holds the power of the economy, the sea, land and air are their biological sons, and the same is true for the Pentagon. Therefore, whether it is funds for the development of military equipment or funds for the resettlement of retired personnel, the Marine Corps has been sidelined.
Gao Yang had heard complaints like Jesse Li's countless times, and he had no intention of discussing the matter with Jesse Li, so he just shrugged. He said helplessly: "There are some things you can't change, there's nothing you can do about it."
Jesse Li sighed,
Then he said seriously: "I have decided to change my destiny. If I succeed, I will have money soon, and I will pay you back soon after I have money, so, can you give it to me?" Leave your contact information.”
Gao Yang would never give his phone number to a homeless man for three hundred dollars, absolutely not.
In Gao Yang's view, becoming a homeless person may have a lot to do with society, but it is mainly his own problem. Those who really can't support themselves can't help it, but Jesse Lee is obviously not one of them.
first. Jesse Lee is still young, and he looks healthy. Based on this alone, he should not be hungry and unable to find a high-paying job. He can support himself even if he only works part-time, and at least he does not have to live on the street.
Gao Yang would not choose to help someone who chose to live a wandering life. God helps those who help themselves. If he is not willing to work hard to change his life, what reason does Gao Yang have to help him? Even Jesse Li is the kind of person who does nothing but fight. For those who don't know how, there is still this career waiting for him. Therefore, Gao Yang really just gave a homeless person a small amount of money that was not worth mentioning to him when he was in a good mood.
But now, when Jesse Li vowed to pay back the money, Gao Yang became a little curious, so he said curiously: "Oh, can I ask how you plan to change your destiny?"
Jesse Li seemed a little hesitant. After pondering for a long time, he nodded and said: "You know, I would never tell anyone my plan, but you, you are an exception, but you don't quite Decide if I should tell you.”
Gao Yang shrugged his shoulders. If Jesse Li couldn't say anything and refused to say it, then forget it. He was actually quite busy, but he had been talking to a homeless man for a long time.
After hesitating again, Jesse Li shook his head and said helplessly: "If I wanted to explain it to you, it would be a long story, and it might bring you some trouble. I I think you might regret it if you find out."
Gao Yang thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Actually, I have enough troubles now, so I'm not afraid of more troubles."
Jesse Lee shrugged his shoulders, and then he said in a deep voice: "Okay, let's start from the beginning. Well, I'm from Louisiana. I enlisted in the Army and joined the Marine Corps. Well, I'm a strong detective. Company, a very strong unit, have you heard of it?"
Gao Yang said in surprise: "Powerful reconnaissance company? That company?"
"Second Company."
"I think it's the company stationed in North Carolina?"
"Yes, you are familiar with it?"
Gao Yang shook his head and said: "No, I'm not very familiar with it, but I know the powerful detective company, well, I just know it."
Jesse Lee nodded, and then he continued: "I'm a sergeant major."
Gao Yang was surprised again and said: "Sergeant Major?"
"Yes, any questions?"
The sergeant major is not an officer, but he has a very important role and status. If Taylor had not chosen to commit suicide and retire from active service in order to avenge Bruce, he would have been promoted to sergeant major soon. As for Jesse, he was already a sergeant major.
Gao Yang scratched his head, and then said with interest: "You are from the powerful reconnaissance company, and you are also a sergeant major. Well, are you in green or black? You know what I'm talking about, right?"
Jesse Li nodded and said: "Of course I understand. I belong to the green team you mentioned, because my tasks are mainly green tasks. Well, you seem to be familiar with the powerful reconnaissance battalion?"
Gao Yang was really interested now. He nodded and said with a smile: "I said, my best brothers are from the Marine Corps. Okay, you continue, I won't interrupt you anymore." (Unfinished) to be continued.)
ps: I couldn't make it because it was foggy in Haikou and the ferry was suspended. After waiting for a while, I checked the weather forecast and then found out that it was going to rain heavily in Guilin, so I simply came back... As a military fan and a writer I am a fan of military novels. I was busy studying the map before I went out. I didn’t even read the weather forecast. I didn’t read the weather forecast... This is an unforgivable and stupid mistake...
