Just when Tom was nervous, the lieutenant colonel asked: "Lieutenant, have you applied for transfer to the base logistics department many times?"

"Yes!" Tom replied subconsciously, and his uneasiness suddenly turned into expectations, and he was also a little nervous. Could it be that these officials came to him not to check the logistics work, but to his own application? Thinking of this, Tom said again: "It was four times in total, and the last time was a month ago..."

The lieutenant colonel nodded slightly, but his expression was still as cold as before. He looked at Tom and asked, "Do you want to be transferred to the combat force according to the requirements you made in your application? Why did you have this idea?"

"This is my dream!" Tom blurted out when he heard this question.

"Dream?" As if he was a little surprised by this answer, the lieutenant colonel asked repeatedly, not only him, but also the colonel who had not spoken, showed interest in his eyes.

"Yes, sir, this is my dream!" Tom clenched his fists quietly. He frankly told the three officials that he had a dream since he was a child, dreaming of becoming a soldier and a soldier traveling in space. Tom started from his family and gradually talked about the cause of his dream and his efforts over the years. Although his grades in the military academy were not very good, Tom was not the worst among the students at the same time, but after graduation, he was assigned to work in the logistics department of the Mars Base, and his logistics work lasted for more than two years.

It’s not that logistics work is not important. As a soldier, especially an officer, Tom certainly knows the importance of logistics work, but holding this position is completely opposite to his dream. Tom does not want to continue working in this position that looks comfortable, but is wasting his youth. What he pursues is to become a real soldier, a member who represents the civilization of the earth and humans to fight with the enemy, or explore the mysteries of the universe.

Tom said everything in his heart with an ancient mind. Facing these three commanders, he had already overcome the initial restraint. In addition, the other party was asking him about the transfer application, Tom felt that it was better to tell the truth. No matter what the commander thought, it was an opportunity for him. Even if the commander finally rejected his transfer, he would even retire early for this reason. Tom would not regret it.

In his opinion, the work of the logistics department is not something he has to pursue. If he wants to continue working in this position, it would be better to retire early. Even if he retires, he can go to Jamie's company on Mars to help and become a member of the merchant ship. Maybe when he saves enough money in the future, he will buy a small commercial spacecraft to and from various small galaxies, which can be considered fulfilling part of his ideal.

Tom's words, including the emotions he expressed when he was telling, surprised the three commanders. They never expected that this young, ordinary officer, who seemed to have such thoughts in his mind. After Tom finished speaking, the Lieutenant Colonel asked him to go out and wait first. Tom understood that the three commanders were going to discuss, and immediately stood up to salute them, then turned around and stepped out of the office.

When the office door was closed, as Tom's immediate boss, Lieutenant Colonel Wang, looked a little embarrassed. He explained to the other two officials: "I'm sorry, sir, I don't know why he thought so. I'm managing me for the personnel of the logistics department..."

The colonel, who had not spoken, waved his hand at him and asked, "How is the second lieutenant's performance in the logistics department?"

"He has a very positive attitude. 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 Wang replied. When he heard Lieutenant Wang's comments to Tom, the colonel nodded slightly. This comment was extremely high. You must know that logistics work is very important. Moreover, although Tom's position is low, he holds rights. If a scheming person can seek personal gain with the rights in his hands, this is also the main reason why the Logistics Department often routinely checks personnel.

Lieutenant Colonel Wang said that Tom was an upright soldier and a responsible person. It is certainly reassuring that such a person works in the logistics department. Perhaps this is also his willingness to be assigned to the logistics department of the Mars Base after graduating from the military academy. Thinking of this, the colonel turned his inquiry eyes to the lieutenant colonel who had asked Tom before.

"Yes, before the cadet graduates, the military academy will evaluate the students' situation and then hand them over to the intelligent brain to analyze it to the most suitable position. Second Lieutenant Tom's military major is not outstanding, but it is good in other aspects. Based on his performance and evaluation results, he has obtained an analysis report that he is suitable for this position, so he was sent to the Mars Base to hold his current position."

After understanding the reason, the colonel couldn't help but laugh. To be honest, these evaluations and analysis do have their reasons, and Tom is doing very well in his current position. Just judging by Lt. Colonel Wang's comments to him is enough to prove that he is a very good logistics officer.

If it weren't for Tom's so-called "dream", he might have become an excellent logistics officer like Lieutenant Colonel Wang in the future, and even made greater progress in this regard. But Tom never gave up his "dream", so he had four consecutive applications for transfer to his superiors. The Colonel came this time to meet this special logistics officer to understand what he was thinking.

Now everything is in front of everyone. Although this young logistics officer is outstanding in logistics work, he is unwilling to give up and has been seeking a front-line position. Lieutenant Colonel Wang feels a little uncomfortable about this situation. He did not receive the previous three application reports, but was forced to suppress it by him. In the Logistics Department, there are very few outstanding officers like Tom. Lieutenant Colonel Wang has always hoped that Tom can work steadily in this position. In order to calm his emotions, Lieutenant Colonel Wang has even proposed to his superiors for promotion, and his superiors have approved it, and it is only a matter of notice and awarding the title.

As for the fourth application report issued by Tom a month ago, Lieutenant Colonel Wang also wanted to suppress it, but something happened at that time, which led to the two commanders around him checking today. Moreover, from the current situation, it seems that the colonel with a big background is a little unhappy. In order to protect his subordinates, Lieutenant Colonel Wang was a little anxious. After all, no matter what Tom wanted to mobilize, it is inappropriate to do so within the military. Soldiers are soldiers, and soldiers take obedience as their duty. This military law was born from the term military when the emergence of human civilization, and the same is true now.

If the chief was dissatisfied with this, he even felt that Tom had violated the military law. Then Tom would face punishment from military law. Thinking of this Lieutenant Colonel trying to say a few more good things to Tom so as not to ruin his future by this young officer he valued.

But who would have thought that before Lieutenant Colonel Wang could speak out, the colonel smiled and said, "Since he has his own dream, as a superior of a young officer, we should encourage their ideas. There was a saying before, "A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. In my opinion, this sentence can also be used on this lieutenant."

Lieutenant Colonel Wang was stunned when he heard this. He couldn't believe his ears. Not only did the chief criticize Tom's actions, he took the initiative to speak for him. How could this be possible? But he concentrated and found that he had heard it wrong, and there was another meaning in the colonel's words.

"Sir, do you mean..." asked tentatively, and the colonel said, "Please handle the transfer procedures for the second lieutenant. You can coordinate with Lieutenant Colonel Wang in specific terms."

The colonel's last words were said to the lieutenant colonel who came with him. The lieutenant colonel nodded. After the colonel said this, he stood up and walked straight to the door regardless of how the two lieutenant colonels coordinated.

When Tom opened the door and waited outside the door, he saw the colonel coming out and saluted. The colonel stopped and replied, then looked at Tom meaningfully and left without saying anything.

Looking at the direction of the colonel leaving, Tom was a little confused. He didn't understand why the person left? Could it be that his own affairs were gone like this? It shouldn't be!

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, the second lieutenant. I will give you three days to hand over the work and go directly to the airport to report in three days."

When Tom heard this, he was stunned at first, and then he showed an ecstatic expression. He had already made the worst preparations before. But he never expected that things would be solved like this. He was so happy that he couldn't help but express his gratitude to the chief. Lieutenant Colonel Wang smiled bitterly. Tom's departure was not a good thing for him. It would be not easy to find such a trustworthy grassroots officer in the future and do things seriously.

After conveying the order, Lieutenant Colonel Wang and another Lieutenant Colonel left the office. Tom suppressed his excitement and sent the two commanders out and watched them go away. Until he could not see the figure, Tom retracted his gaze. When he returned to the office, he still felt that all this was like a dream. In order to prove that he pinched himself hard, the pain on his arm almost made him scream, but his face was filled with a happy smile.

"After leaving Tom's office, Lieutenant Colonel Wang still complained a few resentment, but the Lieutenant Colonel smiled and comforted him, and patted him on the shoulder.

"Old Wang, stop complaining. The forced melon is not sweet. Moreover, the lieutenant has proved his ability during his days working in your logistics department. The headquarters needs such a basic officer to perform an important task."

"Important task? What task?" Lt. Col. Wang asked subconsciously.

"Lao Wang, you should be clear about the regulations."

"Yes! It's my fault, this shouldn't be asked." Lt. Wang immediately reacted, quickly shut up, and then talked to the other party about other topics, as if he hadn't heard anything just now, let alone asked.

Although three days were a bit nervous, it was enough for Tom. He worked in this position for two years. In the past two years, all the documents and information were sorted out neatly, which was very convenient for the handover work. When the handover work was completed on the last day, he took off the special badge representing the officer of the Logistics Department from his chest. Tom was very happy. He had been thinking about where he would be transferred to, whether it was the main battleship of the space fleet? Or a cruiser? Even the escort fleet that advanced to the base was a good choice. No matter what, he finally left this place and was able to realize his dream.

Such good news is the happiest thing to be able to analyze with friends. It’s a pity that Jamie is not on Mars these days. However, he has already told Jamie about this through communications. Jamie is also sincerely happy to be transferred to his good friend. At the same time, he wishes him excellent in his new position. Unfortunately, Su Zhe cannot contact him for the time being. This guy doesn’t know what he is busy with over the years. Although everyone still maintains a certain amount of contact through communications, Su Zhe often disappears for several days, and can only leave a message to him. According to Su Zhe, his laboratory work is very busy, and it seems that it is not so easy to be a scientist.

He left a message to Su Zhe, and he would naturally see the information when he had time. After doing all this, he saw that the time was almost done. According to the command of the commander three days ago, Tom went directly to the airport. The airport was not far from the logistics department, and he arrived in a short while on a small shuttle. Tom was familiar with this place. You should know that he was a member of the logistics officer and had to pass through the airport for delivery of supplies.

It is called an airport, but it is actually a small base, which is much smaller than the entire city. Moreover, it is also a transit point for various military institutions, including the troops. Tom checked the specific places he wanted to report and then walked towards it.

A few minutes later, he came to a relatively remote building. This building was the latest division and belonged to that unit. Tom was not sure about it. However, judging from the soldiers guarding the gate before entering the building and the guards inside, the units in this place did not seem simple. At this moment, Tom was even more happy because he felt that he might have entered an important unit, or even a main fleet.

"Report!"

"Come in!"

He pushed the door open and saw two commanders who had met in his office before. Tom stood at attention and saluted again. After the commander replied, he signaled him to rest. Then the lieutenant colonel who had first talked to him was smiling today and asked him if the work of the logistics department had been handed over. When he received the confirmed reply, the lieutenant colonel unexpectedly announced something.

"Promotion?" Tom asked in surprise.
Chapter completed!
