After settling everything down, Luke spent the next few days dealing with various social occasions.

From the press conference held by the White House to the celebration dinner of various military departments, the axis never stopped.

When everyone saw him, he talked and laughed, appreciated and the atmosphere was harmonious, so that Luke almost had the illusion that "the war has been won".

According to the plot of the film, if the captain of the United States had not stopped the bombing plan of the Hydra red skeleton, the Allies might not have won so smoothly.

"... it is my great honor to present this medal of honor symbolizing bravery to brigadier general Luke Carville! He is not only a hero of the allies, but also our hero!"

On the lawn of the White House, President Roosevelt, in a wheelchair, personally wore the medal representing the highest military honor on Luke\'s chest.

Then they shook hands and took a group photo.

It is estimated that the headlines of all newspapers tomorrow will be about this matter.

"Although I heard that you are very young, I didn\'t expect you to be so young! You know, at your age, my mind is full of how to chat up with the hottest girl in school!"

After the medal ceremony, there was a luncheon at the White House. The entourage pushed the president next to Luke.

As the longest serving and highly valued power holder in American history, the other side knows how to close the relationship between people.

During the whole conversation, the president just talked about Luke\'s parents who died early, the difficult past at school, Uncle Frank and so on.

Act like a gentle and kind elder, not a high-ranking person in power.

"I just made some insignificant contributions, just like those soldiers on the battlefield."

Luke doesn\'t lose ground when he speaks beautiful words.

Politicians like to beat around the Bush, even politicians like Roosevelt are no exception.

"Dwight and I thank you for your gift. Luke - I can call you that! I\'ve met many good young people, but you\'re still the best of those young people!"

The president finally got to the point and said with a smile, "in return, what should I do for you? This war is not over yet, and it is difficult to determine the distribution of many... Interests, and your position is enough eye-catching to continue to move forward."

"I want to go back to the battlefield and end the war myself."

Luke threw his voice on the ground and couldn\'t see the slightest hypocrisy.

For him, the position of brigadier general is not enough.

While the war is not over, the key is to seize the time to make achievements.

Although Roosevelt is polite to himself now, when the dust of World War II is settled, Luke will definitely regard himself as a passer-by if he has no other use value except the halo of honor on his head.

By the way, if nothing happens, the president in a wheelchair may die of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage before the war is completely over.

So, as Vice President Truman is worth investing in.

A series of thoughts passed through Luke\'s head.

"Er..."

The president, who was waiting to write a pile of bad checks, was stunned. Why didn\'t the young brigadier play cards according to the routine.

Clearly, it is their own promise of benefits, win over the relationship, and then harvest gratitude and accept them as confidants

How did it become a righteous initiative to ask for war?

"Then I\'ll contact the allied command."

The president said dryly.

Look at Luke as he leaves and smile.

He set a goal long ago not to be a federal mascot.

Neither politicians nor capital groups can buy themselves off.

"Who would be willing to yield to others."

Luke took the champagne in his hand and pulled a sneer from the corners of his mouth.

"Brigadier general, I\'m a reporter for horn daily! Can I take a picture?"

When the young reporter saw the president leave, the unimpeded entourage trotted over.

He struggled to carry the heavy camera and looked expectantly at Luke.

Horn daily?

Dare you, this is still an old newspaper?

Luke raised his eyebrows and stood straight with a kind and polite smile on his face.

"Yes."

Click!

A flash, freeze frame.

The straight figure and handsome face of the young brigadier general will be spread around the world with the printed newspaper.

……

……

"You don\'t seem very happy, Steve - oh no, I should call you Captain America. Who will clean up the Germans? It\'s the star spangled man with big plans!"

When Luke saw Rogers, a week had passed since he returned to New York.

The Allied Command finally agreed that the young brigadier general who wanted to go to the front went to the battlefield.

In his spare time, Luke made a special trip to visit his old friends. He also hummed the familiar melody widely known in the streets.

But Rogers didn\'t seem happy to hear the song. He turned his head shamefully and said, "don\'t make fun of me, Luke - or do you want me to call you superman? I don\'t like life at all!"

Backstage at the Broadway theater, Captain America, dressed in tight costumes and carrying a star spangled flag shield, looked depressed.

There is no more perseverance and high fighting spirit in the past!

He has become a tool in the hands of senators to sell bonds.

Daily life is to cooperate with publicity, perform on the stage, and then take a group photo.

Say the same lines and do repeated actions, like a machine!

"You are a hero in comic books and movies. Everyone worships Captain America..."

Luke patted each other on the shoulder and said it on purpose.

"They just need an idol! A clown on the stage! You are the hero of the real world! By the way, I haven\'t congratulated you yet, Brigadier General Carville!"

Rogers shook his head, cheered up, squeezed out a smile and said.

His initial purpose of joining the army was to make his due contribution to the war like the soldiers on the front line.

Instead of standing on the stage like a clown, saying meaningless lines and selling all kinds of bonds issued by the state.

"I thought you\'d like the feeling, the big star of Broadway theater. People know you everywhere."

Luke put his hand around Rogers\' neck and said with a smile.

"But you have changed a lot. I had to bend down before I could get your shoulder."

Rogers looked down, ignored his friends\' teasing, and said wearily, "you know, the last time I went to the Caspian training camp in New Jersey - the place we stayed. Every soldier was talking about you, your training experience and your legendary deeds."

"Really! I\'m happy for you and proud of you! Luke, you deserve this honor! I wanted to tell them that you were my friend! But I was afraid that the soldiers would ask, why are you on the front line and I hide behind..."

Rogers, who was called "Captain America", laughed at himself.

He is tired of the present days, but he can\'t resist.

Obeying orders is the bounden duty of soldiers.

With the consent of the military, Rogers had to be obedient.

"Then you can go to Europe with me."

Like in Brooklyn before, Luke took Rogers by the shoulder and said the surprising good news in an understatement.

"Europe... Really?"

Rogers didn\'t react until a few seconds later, with an unbelievable expression on his face.

"But what about the military? The senator won\'t agree!"

Soon Rogers\' eyes darkened again.

He knew Luke was trying to help himself, but it wouldn\'t be good to get into trouble.

Senator Brandt has a place on the Committee and has a good relationship with the military.

"Hey, little man of Brooklyn, standing in front of you is a brigadier general, a hero of the Allied forces and a tomorrow star decorated by the president."

Luke pretended to be angry, frowned and said his title seriously.

In fact, he went to see Senator Brandt before driving here.

When he heard of his intention, the arrogant Senator agreed to it without saying a word.

Before Luke left, the other party even begged him not to blame and kept a low attitude.

This is the true nature of politicians, bullying the soft and fearing the hard, and steering according to the wind!

"How\'s it going? Captain America, do you want to go to the European battlefield and see how powerful the hydra is with me!"

Hearing Luke\'s invitation, Rogers nodded abruptly, his eyes full of surprises.

He felt his life and saw hope again!

"Thank you, Luke."

Rogers said gratefully.

"You should call me commander."

Luke smiled twice and pulled Captain America away from the Broadway theater.

"Let\'s go have a drink! Celebrate Captain America\'s new life and our reunion!"

The two figures walked up the street with their shoulders crossed, joking and laughing, and disappeared into the crowd.
