Major General Pat Plouffe is wearing an Air Force general uniform today. He is in his 50s, with a ruddy face and a medium build. His purple beret has a blue and white eagle on it, and his military trousers are tucked into black leather boots. He was very aura, and behind him were several colonels and lieutenants.
Lieutenant Colonel Jack Linton hurriedly greeted him. The principal had not been to the playground for a long time. He usually only came to welcome him at the beginning of the school year or during graduation celebrations.
When the Japanese students saw Principal Pat Plouffe coming to the playground in person, they were all secretly happy, knowing that something big was going to happen when the principal came, most likely because of the Chinese international student Zhou Zhihan's falsified grades.
Randolph Air Force Academy is a branch campus of West Point Military Academy and adheres to the Twenty-Two Military Rules and motto of West Point Military Academy.
Everyone knows that the motto of West Point Military Academy is Country, Honor, and Duty.
Fraudulent grades will never be allowed in military academies. This violates the word "honor."
"Who is Chinese student Zhou Zhihan?"
Maj. Gen. Pat Plouffe asked, his voice full of energy and deep.
When the Chinese students heard Major General Pat Plouffe mentioning Zhou Zhihan, they all raised their hearts in their throats. They thought that this is trouble. Zhihan must have falsified his grades. Otherwise, Principal Pat Plouffe would not Take action personally.
Everyone knows that military students who falsify their grades will be expelled from school on the spot, no matter who they are.
"Principal!" Hasegawa Ryuji pointed at Zhou Zhihan sitting on the marching rucksack and said, "He is Zhou Zhihan, a Chinese international student. He deliberately falsified his grades and damaged the collective image of our Asian international students. General, please punish him severely and correct the school rules! "
Major General Pat Plouffe stopped and looked at Hasegawa Ryuji: "Who are you and how do you know that his grades are fraudulent."
"Report to the principal!" Ryuji Hasegawa gave a military salute, "I am Ryuji Hasegawa, a Japanese international student, because it is impossible for a Chinese international student to complete an armed march of 14 kilometers with a load of 30 kilograms in one hour."
Major General Pat Plouffe put his fingers together slightly, touched the end of his eyebrows with his index finger, and waved forward gracefully and confidently in return: "Oh! Can you Japanese students do that?"
Hasegawa Ryuji stood at attention: "General! We can't do it!"
"If you can't do it, do you think others can't do it too?" Major General Pat Plouffe walked past Ryuji Hasegawa and walked straight to Zhou Zhihan. "Classmate Zhou, congratulations on creating Zilun." Since the founding of the Dorf Air Force Academy, no one has ever achieved such outstanding results.”
All Chinese international students suspect that their ears have heard wrongly.
So the American students were shocked. Many of them knew Zhou Zhihan, and no one believed that this Chinese salted fish who once ranked at the bottom in the military academy's physical fitness test actually made a strong counterattack after March.
All the Japanese international students had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
How can this be?
Did the principal make a mistake?
The principal must have made a mistake.
Lieutenant Colonel Jack Linton didn't believe it either. He lowered his head and asked the sergeant.
The sergeant said that the principal just now personally asked several soldiers arranged by the military academy on the road. The soldiers confirmed that starting from the entrance of the military airport, there were no other soldiers on the road except for stopping to take a long pee on the roadside. After resting again, we marched all the way to the military academy.
During this period of an hour, several soldiers disguised as passers-by A, B, C and D followed him not far behind on bicycles, confirming that this achievement was real and effective!
Lieutenant Colonel Jack Linton's eyes widened, God! The 14-kilometer march with a load of 30 kilograms, no, no, no, the march with a load of 38 kilograms took only one hour. This achievement has indeed never been achieved since the establishment of the Randolph Air Force Academy.
Seeing the principal walking towards him with a smile, Zhou Zhihan quickly stood up and saluted: "Principal!"
Major General Pat Plouffe responded slightly: "Classmate Zhou, your achievement is real and valid. Congratulations on becoming the first cadet at Randolph Air Force Academy to achieve this outstanding achievement."
Now no one doubted Zhou Zhihan's performance. The principal's words shattered all rumors.
Major General Pat Plouff said loudly: "Student Zhou Zhihan, welcome back to Randolph Air Force Academy. To welcome you and congratulate you on your good achievements, I now invite you to fly with me to the Air Force Academy." Empty flight!”
As soon as Major Pat Plouff said these words, the whole audience became restless.
The president of the Randolph Air Force Academy welcomed a cadet who had never had a flying record by personally piloting a trainer aircraft into the air.
Oh, God!
This is an honor!
The instructors of all the military academies were not calm. Since the establishment of the Randolph Air Force Academy, no cadet had been lucky enough to be invited by the principal to fly together.
All the Chinese students were proud and proud at this moment. In the past three months, they, the Japanese students, had been crushed and humiliated. At this moment, they were completely released!
All the Japanese students stood dumbfounded at the scene. They never imagined that the plot twist would be so big. Not only was this Chinese student not expelled, but his results were also proven to be valid. For the first time, he was selected by Pat Plouffe. The principal received him with the highest courtesy of inviting him to fly with him.
How could a Chinese person win such an honor?
All the Japanese international students showed jealousy and hatred in their eyes.
Major General Pat Plouffe told Lieutenant Colonel Jack Linton that all junior trainees should gather at the flight training airport to observe takeoff and landing flights.
The basic knowledge of these students has been completed, and they will enter the second stage in the next few days.
The first stage is physical training and learning the basic theoretical knowledge of aircraft.
The second stage of practice will differentiate the types of aircraft that all students can fly!
Students who meet Category A requirements can become test pilots, fighter pilots, and fly various fighter jets;
Students who meet Category B requirements can fly fighter jets and fighter-bombers;
Students who meet Category C requirements can fly bombers and reconnaissance aircraft;
Students who meet the requirements of Category D can fly reconnaissance aircraft or military transport aircraft;
Students who meet the requirements of Category E can be a bombardier for bombers, a transmitter for reconnaissance aircraft, or a parachuting trainer for transport aircraft.
All the training before this is just to lay the foundation for each student to fly on the plane. As for which level each student is suitable for, we can only know as the second stage deepens and then flies with the instructor.
The junior students came to the flight training airport together. There were rows of trainer aircraft ranging from simple to complex.
There are more than a dozen training aircraft in the first row, which is the Stearman PT-17 biplane training aircraft that is the simplest and easiest to master.
There are more than a dozen training aircraft in the second row, which are low-wing training aircraft BT-13 and BT-15 equipped with fixed landing gear.
After flying these two BT trainer aircraft, students can fly the aircraft alone.
Just when all the instructors thought that Major General Pat Plouffe would take Zhou Zhihan to fly the Stearman PT-17 bi-wing trainer aircraft, Major General Pat Plouffe walked towards another brand-new trainer aircraft.
Lieutenant Colonel Jack Linton thought to himself that the principal would not take this Chinese student to fly the AT-6 Texan single-engine, tandem-seat trainer aircraft that had just successfully tested.
