The film starts with the Navy SEALs

Chapter 354 Navy Cross, surprise surprise! (Thanks to "Calcium Bicarbonate" for the 5 reward)
Day 14 back from Somalia.

Apart from PTSD, Long Zhan can only recuperate slowly. All his physical injuries have recovered and he has been discharged from the hospital. Clay, Sonny and other friends came to clean up the dust.

Stella puts on a "hostess" flair as she prepares a celebratory party in her new home ahead of time.

Almost all the good friends of the two were invited.

Jason, Ray, Clay and other old guys from the B team must all be present, and those with wives bring their wives, and those without wives bring their girlfriends.

Derek, the vice-captain of Team A who lives opposite, and his wife Trish are naturally indispensable.

Especially in the past few months when they moved here, as "difficult sisters" who share the same illness and stay alone in the boudoir, Tracy and Stella have a very harmonious relationship.

In the process of planning this party, Trish can be said to have been very busy.

Buy all kinds of ingredients and drinks for the party, help arrange the party scene, make party food and snacks, and even use her house as a party venue.

Without Tracy's full help, Stella would have been a little busy.

Besides.

The old buddy Brian, the hapless old Cooper, the perfect runner Mandy, the commander of the operation team Eric, Stella's single best friend and so on.

There were a total of three to 40 people, and the atmosphere of the party was not to mention how lively it was.

Jason was the only one in the whole party who was in a bad mood. He was not as bold as a big brother in the past. Instead, he drank alone on the balcony.

Long Zhan made a special trip to chat with Mandy, only to find out that Jason also had a problem.

Like Dragon War, it's PTSD.

In the final operation to destroy the Harani network, Jason suffered a severe concussion caused by a blow to the head, which caused him to suffer from post-traumatic sequelae.

Jason also knew that something was wrong with him, but he kept his mouth shut and refused to admit it.

Long Zhan can also guess the reason.

Jason really loves this job, pursues the honor and pride that this job brings him, and has a strong sense of belonging to the US military.

Unlike Long Zhan who just wanted to leave, DG was just his "training ground" from the beginning.

If he is rated as moderate or above PTSD, Jason knows what kind of ending he will face, and there is a high probability that he will be forcibly retired.

The best result is to go to PMC.

But this was unacceptable to Jason.

What Jason wants is that in the minds of his children, he will always be the image of a hero who protects the United States. He can be buried with the national flag after death, which is still the pride of his children.

Long Zhan set PMC as his future path, but Jason only wanted to dedicate his life to the army.

The way you choose is different, and your thoughts are also different.

That's why Jason was so depressed after he learned that he had a mental problem, and he couldn't be happy at such a festive occasion.

"I want to get PTSD but I can only pretend, Jason doesn't want to get PTSD but got it, this..."

It is said that reality is more exciting than acting, Long Zhan finally has a deep understanding of this sentence, and he can't help but feel a little bit sad about Jason's experience.

Thinking of joining DG, Jason has helped him a lot as the captain, so Long Zhan decided to enlighten him.

As a PTSD patient myself, I chatted with Jason for more than an hour.

Don't say it.

Really useful.

From the perspective of normal people, they are basically concerned. I hope Jason can recognize the situation and cooperate with the treatment, which will make Jason resist from the bottom of his heart.

But Long Zhan was from the perspective of the patient, so Jason didn't have this rejection.

With this good foundation of communication, coupled with Long Zhan's own experience as a demonstration, it proved that this disease is not a big problem.

Even if his condition is so serious that he is only temporarily transferred to the black team to do logistics,

Jason's resistance to PTSD has dropped significantly. He no longer gets angry when someone asks him to see a doctor like before, and he also accepted the doctor's business card handed over by Long Zhan.

That was the doctor who was in charge of treating Long Zhan's PTSD during his hospitalization.

After solving Jason's problem, Long Zhan returned to the party and continued to drink and chat with everyone, mainly because of the interesting things that happened during this peacekeeping mission.

He even called some guys from Team B and Mandy to the study.

Telling everyone that he has been transferred to the black team, and that he will go to the black team tomorrow is just a report. For a long time to come, he will not be able to fight side by side with his brothers.

People like this were shocked when they heard the news, and couldn't believe that Long Zhan just left.

However, considering Long Zhan's current condition, he needs a relatively stable environment to raise him up. It is indeed a good arrangement to go to the black team to do logistics.

In addition, even if you can go to the black team like this, everyone still works in the same building and can meet each other at any time.

Although everyone felt very regretful and reluctant, they chose to accept the reality optimistically, and sent blessings for Long Zhan to go to the new squadron.

……

the next morning.

Long Zhan called and made an appointment with Blackburn, kissed Stella goodbye and came to the headquarters next.

Blackburn rushed to the headquarters building later, and did not take Long Zhan to report directly to the black team, but first changed Long Zhan into a navy uniform, and then brought him to the main conference room.

As soon as I entered the Dragon War, I was stunned.

Good guy.

There were dozens of people waiting for him, including the DG captain Williams who rarely met, the old guys from Team A and Team B, and the instructors and instructors of the Green Team.

There are at least five or 60 people in total.

Everyone present had smiles on their faces, obviously knowing what was going on.

Only Long Zhan didn't know.

With this battle and the special arrangement, it was clear that they wanted to surprise Long Zhan.

It was actually a surprise.

When Long Zhan was invited to the stage by the team leader, and after the team leader personally read out the commendation speech, under the witness of envious and happy applause, Long Zhan was given a medal.

Navy Cross!

In the US military medal system, the Navy Cross is second only to the "Medal of Honor" that can only be obtained after death. It can be said that it is the highest honor that a soldier can receive while alive.

Awarded only to members of the U.S. Navy, or Marine Corps, for exceptional bravery in combat but not sufficient to award the Medal of Honor.

To be awarded the medal, a soldier must be in great danger, or at great personal risk, for actions that stand out from those of others of the same rank, experience, or responsibility.

to be honest.

It is the strongest in the same level!
Many small acts of bravery add up and are not enough to qualify for the Navy Cross.

Long Zhan had absolutely no interest in the honor represented by the medal itself, but the value behind this medal made Long Zhan's heart skip a beat.

With the blessing of this medal, it is equivalent to having a real gold-lettered signboard.

Putting it out is the best "resume".

Whether you go out to pick up tasks when you work alone, you can be ahead of other PMCs innately, and you can also gain a lot of convenience in opening a military contracting company in the future.
