Just when Tom was feeling uneasy, the lieutenant colonel asked: "Second Lieutenant, have you applied for transfer to the base logistics department many times?"
"Yes" Tom replied subconsciously, and the uneasiness in his heart suddenly turned into expectation, and at the same time he was still a little nervous.
Could it be that these officers came to him not to check the logistics, but to check their own applications?
Thinking of this, Tom said again : "Four times in total, the last time was just a month ago."
The lieutenant colonel nodded slightly, but his expression was still as cold as before.
He glanced at Tom and asked: "According to the requirements in your application, you want to be transferred to the combat force.
Why do you have this idea?"
"It's my dream," Tom blurted out when he heard the question.
"Dream" seemed a little surprised by this answer.
The lieutenant colonel asked again.
Not only him, but also the colonel who had never spoken showed a trace of interest in his eyes.
"Yes, sir, this is my dream."
Tom quietly shook his fist.
He frankly told the three officers that he had had a dream since he was a child.
He dreamed of becoming a soldier, a soldier traveling in space.
Tom started talking about his family, and gradually talked about the origin of his dream and his hard work over the years.
Although his grades in the military academy were not very good, among the students in the same period, Tom was not the worst.
However, after graduation, he was assigned to work in the logistics department of the Mars base.
He worked in the logistics department for more than two years.
This is not to say that logistics work is not important.
As a soldier, especially an officer, Tom certainly knows the importance of logistics work.
However, holding this position is completely opposite to his dream.
Tom does not want to continue working in this job that seems comfortable but is a waste of time.
What he pursues is to become a real soldier, a soldier who represents the earth's civilization and mankind to fight against the enemy, or explore the mysteries of the universe. member.
Tom spoke out everything that was on his mind.
He had already overcome his initial restraint when facing these three officers.
In addition, the other party was asking him about his transfer application.
Tom felt that it was better to tell the truth. good.
No matter what the superior thinks, it is an opportunity for him.
Even if the superior vetoes his transfer in the end, or even asks him to retire early for this reason, Tom will not regret it.
In his opinion, the work in the logistics department is not his responsibility.
If he is to continue working in this position, it would be better to retire early.
Even if you retire.
He can go to Jamie's company on Mars to help and become a member of the merchant ship.
Maybe in the future, when I save enough money, I can buy a small commercial spaceship to travel to various small galaxies.
This can be considered as fulfilling part of my ideal.
Tom's words, including the emotions he expressed when speaking, made the three officers a little surprised.
They never thought that this young, seemingly ordinary officer would have such thoughts in his mind.
After Tom finished speaking, Lieutenant Colonel Shen Zhu asked him to go out and wait for a moment.
Tom understood that the three officers wanted to discuss it, so he immediately stood up and saluted them, then turned and walked out of the office.
Wait for the office door to close.
Tom's immediate boss, Lieutenant Colonel Wang, looked a little embarrassed and explained to the other two officers: "I'm sorry, sir, I don't know why he would think so about managing me as a member of the logistics department."
The colonel, who had been silent until now, waved his hand at him and asked, "How is the second lieutenant's performance in the logistics department?"
"His work attitude is very upright.
He has never made any mistakes since he came to work in the logistics department.

More importantly, the second lieutenant is an upright and responsible person."
Lieutenant Colonel Wang replied.
When he heard Lieutenant Colonel Wang's comment about Tom, the colonel nodded slightly.
This comment was extremely high.
You must know that logistics work is very important, and although Tom's position is low, he holds power.
If there are some scheming people, they can seek personal gain for themselves with the power in their hands.
This is also the main reason why the logistics department often checks personnel routinely.
Lieutenant Colonel Wang said that Tom is an upright soldier and a responsible person.
It is certainly reassuring for such a person to work in the logistics department.
Perhaps this was also his wish to be assigned to the Logistics Department of the Mars base after graduating from the military academy.
Thinking of it, the colonel turned his questioning eyes to the lieutenant colonel who had asked Tom before.
"Yes, the military academy will conduct an assessment of each student's situation before they graduate, and then hand it over to the brain for analysis to find the most suitable position.
Second Lieutenant Tom's performance in the military major is not outstanding.
But in other years But he is good in all aspects.
Based on his performance and evaluation results, we can get an analysis report that he is suitable for this position, so he was sent to the Mars base to take up his current position. " After understanding the reason, the colonel couldn't help but smile.
To be honest, these evaluations and analyzes did make sense, and Tom was doing a very good job in his current position.
Just judging from Lieutenant Colonel Wang's comments about him was enough to prove that he was a A very good logistics officer.
If it weren't for Tom's so-called "dream", maybe he could become an excellent logistics officer like Lieutenant Colonel Wang in the future, and even have greater development in this area.
But Tom has never given up on his "dream", which is why he submitted transfer applications to his superiors four times in a row.
The colonel came here just to meet this special logistics officer and find out what he really thought. of.
Now everything is in front of everyone.
Although this young logistics officer is outstanding in logistics work, he refuses to give in and has been seeking a front-line position.
Lieutenant Colonel Wang felt a little unhappy about this situation.
It was not that he had not received the three previous application reports, but that he had suppressed them forcefully.
In the logistics department, there are very few outstanding officers like Tom.
Lieutenant Colonel Wang has always hoped that Tom can continue to work hard in this position.
In order to appease his emotions, Lieutenant Colonel Wang has even proposed to his superiors a promotion to the military rank, and the superiors have already After the approval is obtained, the only thing left is notification and title conferment.
As for the fourth application report sent by Tom a month ago, Lieutenant Colonel Wang also wanted to suppress it, but something happened at that time, which led to what happened today when the two officers around him came to verify it.
And judging from the current situation, it seems that this well-established colonel is not very happy.
In order to protect his subordinates, Lieutenant Colonel Wang is a little anxious.
After all, no matter what Tom wants to transfer, it is inappropriate within the military.
Soldiers are soldiers, and soldiers regard obedience as their bounden duty.
This military law has been born since the term "army" appeared in human civilization, and the same is true now.
If the commander is dissatisfied with this, he may even feel that Tom has violated military discipline by doing so.
Then Tom will face punishment under military law.
Thinking of Lieutenant Colonel Wang trying to say a few more good words to Tom, so as not to ruin the future of this young officer whom he valued.
But who would have thought that before Lieutenant Colonel Wang could say anything, the colonel smiled and said: "Since he has his own dreams to pursue, as the superiors of a young officer, we should encourage their ideas.
There was a saying before.
Soldiers who don't want to be generals Not a good soldier, I think this sentence can also be applied to this second lieutenant. " Lieutenant Colonel Wang was stunned after hearing this.
He couldn't believe his ears.
Instead of severely criticizing Tom's actions, the officer took the initiative to speak for him.
How could this be possible?
But he concentrated and realized that he had heard correctly, and the colonel There is another meaning in the words.
"Sir, what do you mean?"
After asking tentatively, the colonel said: "Go through the transfer procedures for the second lieutenant.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
You can coordinate with Lieutenant Colonel Wang on the specific aspects."
The colonel's last words were addressed to the lieutenant colonel who came with him.
The lieutenant colonel nodded.
After the colonel said this, he stood up and walked straight towards the door regardless of how the two lieutenant colonels coordinated.
Opening the door, Tom, who was waiting outside, saw the colonel coming out and quickly stood up and saluted.
The colonel stopped and saluted back, then gave Tom a meaningful look and left without saying a word.
Looking at the direction the colonel left, Tom was a little confused.
He didn't understand why people just left.
Shouldn't he just let his matter go by like this?
At this moment, Lieutenant Colonel Wang's voice came from the office behind him, and Tom quickly turned around and walked into the office.
"Your transfer application has been approved, Second Lieutenant.
You will be given three days to hand over the work.
You will report directly to the airport after three days."
Tom was stunned when he heard this.
Then he showed an ecstatic expression.
He had been prepared for the worst, but he never imagined that things would be resolved like this.
Overjoyed, he couldn't help but express his gratitude to his commander repeatedly.
Lieutenant Colonel Wang smiled bitterly.
Tom's departure was not a good thing for him.
It will not be easy to find such a trustworthy and conscientious junior logistics officer in the future.
Completed the order.
Lieutenant Colonel Wang and another lieutenant colonel left the office.
Tom suppressed his excitement and sent the two officers out and watched them go away.
Tom didn't look back until he couldn't see the figure.
When he returned to the office, he still felt that everything was like a dream.
To prove it, he pinched himself hard, and the pain in his arm made him almost scream. , but his face was filled with a happy smile.
"After leaving Tom's office and walking far away, Lieutenant Colonel Wang still complained a few words unwillingly, but the Lieutenant Colonel smiled and comforted him and patted him on the shoulder.
"Old Wang, don't complain.
It's not sweet to be forced.
Moreover, the second lieutenant has proven his ability in working in your logistics department these days.
The headquarters needs such a basic officer to perform an important task."
"What important mission?"
Lieutenant Colonel Wang asked subconsciously.
"Old Wang, you should know the regulations."
"It's my fault, right?
You shouldn't ask."
Lieutenant Colonel Wang reacted immediately, shut up quickly, and then chatted with the other party about other topics, as if he hadn't heard anything just now, let alone asked.
Although three days was a bit tight, it was enough for Tom.
He had worked in this position for two years.
During these two years, all documents and information were neatly organized, which was very important for the handover work.
Convenient.
When the handover work was completed on the last day and the special badge representing the officer of the Logistics Department was taken off his chest, Tom was extremely happy.
He had been wondering for the past few days where he would be transferred, whether it would be the main battleship of the Space Fleet or the main battleship of the Space Fleet.
A cruiser is a good choice even as a convoy to the base.
No matter what, he finally left this place and was able to realize his dream.

It is the happiest thing to be able to analyze such good news with friends.
Unfortunately, Jamie is not on Mars these days.
However, he has already told Jamie about it through communication.
Jamie is also sincere about the transfer of his good friend.
I am very happy and wish him well in his new position.
Unfortunately, Su Zhe cannot be contacted for the time being.
I don’t know what this guy has been busy with these years.
Although everyone still maintains a certain degree of contact through communication, Su Zhe often disappears for several days, and you can only leave messages with him.
According to Su Zhe, his laboratory work is very busy, and it seems that being a scientist is not that easy.
I left a message for Su Zhe and he would naturally see the message when he was free.
After doing all this, it was almost time to check.
According to the commander's order three days ago, Tom went directly to the airport.
The airport was not far from the logistics department.
He took a small shuttle and arrived in a short time.
Tom was no stranger here.
You know, he But as a member of the logistics officer, the distribution of supplies has to go through the airport.
Although it is said to be an airport, it is actually a small base.
Of course, it is much smaller than the entire city.
Moreover, it is also the transit point for various military agencies, including various troops.
Tom checked the specific place he wanted to report, and then He strode towards that direction.
A few minutes later, he came to a relatively remote building.
This building was newly classified.
Tom didn't know which army it belonged to, but judging from the soldiers guarding the door before entering the building and the guards inside, this place had The unit did not look simple, and Tom was even more happy at this moment, because he felt that he might have entered an important unit, or even a main fleet.
"Report" "Come in" Pushing the door open, he saw the two officers he had met before in his office.
Tom stood at attention and saluted again.
The officer returned the salute and signaled him to take a break.
Then the lieutenant colonel who had a cold conversation with him at first smiled and asked him today Has all the work of the Logistics Department been handed over?
After receiving the confirmation reply, the lieutenant colonel unexpectedly announced something.
"Promotion" Tom asked in surprise.
"That's right, Lieutenant, you have been promoted."
The Lieutenant Colonel turned around and picked up a box from the table.
When he opened the box, there was a pair of shoulder and collar badges with the rank of Lieutenant.
He took them out with a smile, and then personally replaced Tom's original ones.
After doing this, the Lieutenant Colonel took the initiative to salute Tom and said at the same time: "Congratulations, Lieutenant Tom." aa2705221:
