    The arrival of Patton's 4th Armored Division and subsequent troops completely disrupted the German plan to attack Bastogne. The German army had no choice but to begin to comprehensively shrink its forces and switch from the offensive to the defensive.  <-> In this way, the Americans who were beaten so hard by the Germans on the entire Western Front breathed a sigh of relief.

    The battle no longer requires our troops who suffered heavy losses to fight hard. General Patton was very considerate and put them behind to rest and recuperate. Of course, stopping does not mean that there is nothing to do.  From the beginning of the pursuit of the German infiltration troops to the defense of Bastogne, some things have been accumulating and have not had time to deal with.  For example, issues such as arrangements for the treatment of killed and injured personnel, reporting of meritorious personnel, and replenishment of personnel gaps in the army need to be solved bit by bit.

    It¡¯s not easy to sort out all these things.  Thinking of Jones in the hospital, this guy was really lucky. A fragment of a shell pierced Jones's skull and got stuck there.  According to the doctor, if the shrapnel had penetrated deeper into the central nervous system of his brain, he would have died immediately.

    After listening to the doctor¡¯s words, I thought that even if the shrapnel was removed from Jones¡¯ head by the doctor, Jones would probably have many sequelae.  However, the doctor also said that surgery is necessary, but it is also very risky. You may die during the operation, or you may become a vegetative state. The final outcome depends on God's arrangements.

    After thinking about it, he had nothing to do for the time being, so he called Bernard Lin, who was somewhat silent after returning from the front line, and said, "Come with me to the hospital to see Jones!" Bernard Lin did not speak, nodded, and jumped silently.  Get in the jeep.  Great dominate

    We were silent all the way, and soon we arrived at the hospital located in the rear. As soon as we reached the hospital gate, we were stopped by the guards.  After showing my ID, I smiled and said to the guard, "I'm here to visit my brother!"

    The guard turned over the certificate with an indifferent expression and said with a straight face: "I know! You are not the only ones visiting our brothers! However, according to the latest temporary regulations of the hospital, all visits must be approved by the hospital leaders before they can enter.  !¡±

    Bernard Lin was in a bad mood. Normally, the guard's words wouldn't have irritated Bernard Lin. After all, it was business. But at this time, Bernard Lin felt very harsh when he heard the guard's indifferent words.  He became angry and said: "Damn it, my brother is about to die. Why don't you let people take a look?"

    The guard looked at Bernard Lin coldly and said rudely: "Please watch your words! This is a hospital, not your military camp!"

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Bernard Lin, who is about to pull out a pistol and use his hand to use force. I hold Bernard in my arms and shout, ¡° Bernard Lin, what are you going to do?¡±

    The guard was also startled, and his reaction was not slow. He suddenly retreated, raised his submachine gun and pointed it at me and Bernard Lin, and called to other guards:

    "Come quickly, someone is going to cause trouble!"

    I whispered in Bernard Lin¡¯s ear, ¡°Don¡¯t make trouble! The military police are keeping a close eye on us now!¡±

    Speaking of the military police, Lin Bernard¡¯s mind suddenly calmed down.  Raise your hands towards the guards.  He made a harmless gesture and apologized: "I'm sorry! I couldn't control my emotions!"

    I explained to the guard: "I'm really sorry. My brother has a bad temper. That's because, from Normandy to Bastogne, my company has almost changed its old men, and the remaining old brother was seriously injured.  Maybe we can¡¯t hold it anymore! We all feel extremely heartbroken!¡±

    The scene that was a bit tense just now was deeply affected after listening to my low-toned narration. Everyone seemed to have a scene in their mind of soldiers falling one by one on the battlefield in a hail of bullets from the enemy.  , that is the brother who can use his body to block bullets for you. That kind of feeling is something that ordinary people cannot understand. This kind of life and death love will probably not be forgotten until death.

    The gun in the guard's hand was gradually lowered, and the guard's tone softened slightly: "It's not that I don't let you go in to visit your brothers! It's really because the sudden attack launched by the Germans caused a large number of casualties. The entire military hospital  It¡¯s already overloaded! If everyone¡¯s comrades come to visit us again! I¡¯m afraid the hospital¡¯s work will no longer be able to be done! Therefore, the superiors have instructed that all matters related to visits will not be allowed without the permission of the superiors!¡±

    The guard was telling the truth, which would have been fine in normal times. However, after the Germans launched the Battle of the Ardennes, in just a few days from December 16 to now, the number of wounded soldiers coming off the front line every day has increased.  The number was frightening, and the entire field hospital and rear hospital immediately became overcrowded.  It is said that the corridors of the hospital are full of people, and it is difficult for doctors and nurses to get in!  Coupled with the cold weather, many soldiers died in the hospital because they did not receive timely treatment. It was also common.  The high command ordered the logistics and transportation troops to evacuate to the rear with all their strength.7; personnel took up arms and participated in the resistance against the German army!  "

    The staff asked: "Are we asking those niggas to join the combat troops?"

    Eisenhower nodded and said: "We must do this. I cannot let my white soldiers fight bloody battles at the front while these black men at the rear sit back and enjoy the gains."

    The staff laughed and said: "It's time to let these niggas participate in the battle!"

    Another staff member asked: "However, this will make the blood of our army impure!"

    General Eisenhower said: "We just let these niggas participate in the front line! As for the command power, we can't give them command. This will not affect the blood of our army!"

    "I'm afraid they won't be willing to fight as bravely as the white soldiers!"

    "No, no, no, we just need to give them appropriate incentives. For example, anyone who voluntarily joins the combat force will be exempted from some unreasonable systems for his family and himself, and will be treated the same as white people!"

    General Eisenhower¡¯s few words in the command room provided the opportunity for serving blacks to voluntarily join the infantry mission. What the command headquarters did not expect during the entire Ardennes campaign was that more than 5,000 people responded.  Many of these blacks voluntarily downgraded to meet the requirements to participate in infantry tasks. For example, the 6th Army formed these people into temporary companies, and the 12th Army formed them into platoons to join existing rifle companies.  These black volunteers made outstanding achievements in the Ardennes Counterattack. In the battle, they were no less brave than the white people. They gave the white people a slap in the face, because the white people previously evaluated the black people as lazy and disgusting.  , cowards and other bad negative impressions, the Battle of the Ardennes also heralded a complete change in the post-war tradition of hiring blacks in the US military.  (To be continued.)
