Chapter 1 Kelly Thompson (Freeless)

Kelly Thmpsn's ambition since childhood was to become a pilot - and not a random pilot, she wanted to become a fighter pilot!

Perhaps this is not a common ambition for a little girl who is only twelve years old.

To be honest, Kelly's parents took her to the nearby Air Force Base Museum when he was a child.

It is also the largest and oldest aviation museum in the world.

During these few visits, Kelly fell in love with the Jets, and she could even spend the whole day at the museum without feeling tired.

People are used to blame the outcome of everything on certain factors, or try to point out specific events to explain their behavior - this method does not seem to work for Kelly.

All in all, this little girl has a completely different goal in her heart than children of the same age (and the same gender).

While other girls were playing with dolls, she ran around with a small model of a fighter, fantasizing that she was a pilot, freely roaming in the blue sky.

When Kelly was in seventh grade, the jet had been on the market for more than 40 years.

Just as aviation technology is advancing rapidly and fighter jets are flying faster and faster, the qualifications of female pilots are developing as slowly as turtles.

Their shining figures once appeared briefly on the battlefield, but disappeared without a trace like a flash in the pan.

Back then, at the age of twelve, she wrote a letter to the Air Force Academy, asking if women could fly fighters.

Her parents didn't know about it.

College Contact Jack.Boyd thought it was a very interesting thing, so he called Kelly's house to reply.

The person who received the call at the beginning was Kelly's father, and he was so surprised that he couldn't speak.

He never thought that the Air Force Academy would call back specially, but what surprised him even more was his daughter's persistence and courage to this ambition.

This comes from the youngest daughter.

Kelly has begun paving the way for her future at the age of twelve!

In order to show respect for her daughter, Kelly's father handed her the phone number and handed the matter to her with full authority.

Kelly’s question is simple: Is it possible for women to become fighter pilots.

As a result, the other party's reply was no.

Why?Kelly asked curiously.

The other party’s answer is very simple: regulations!

It was this short call that less than five minutes that turned the whole thing into a personal grudge between Kelly and the military; at least that was what the former thought.

These Air Force Academy guys point out the reason why she can't be a fighter pilot is simply because she's a girl.

Because her name is not John, Kent, Michael...

But Kelly.

Oh, really?Then let’s take a look!

Since that incident, she has obviously become more determined to become a fighter pilot.

There is no doubt that Kelly has a perseverance and is only to achieve her goals and dreams (by the way, it is good to those who don’t like her).

The real question is how she should realize this ambition; after all, there are currently no female fighter pilots in her country.

She has no previous examples to pursue, and there is no way to seek experience and resources in this area.

Therefore, Kelly started with her own physical strength first.

Since the seventh grade, she has trained herself regularly and strictly.

Her idols also include many excellent female athletes.

Kelly used them as motivation and reference samples to strive to improve physical fitness and adaptability.

She ran faster than the others, jumped higher and had better responsiveness…

Kelly was silently ready to face the challenges of the future.

******

Six years have passed, and she was only eighteen years old at this time.

Kelly Thompson not only got his high school diploma as the first in the school, but also made great achievements in sports - women's basketball, football, etc.

If she continues on this path, she can undoubtedly enter the top universities in the country by using sports promotion.

Naturally, she resolutely chose the Air Force Academy.

During his study, the biggest challenge Kelly faced was probably the endurance test.

She has been training herself continuously in the past, so passing the test is easy. The real question is whether she can get along well with other team members.

The endurance test is composed of a four-person team. The team members must carry heavy guns and equipment and travel more than ten miles to reach the end.

The code table will stop calculating only when everyone passes.

Due to the scarcity of female students, she was assigned to a team of all men; the latter seemed quite unhappy when she saw the former.

Take it for granted, they think this woman will drag down the group's score.

But Kelly proved that she was not as vulnerable as they thought.

Even though her neck was worn out during her marching and her shoulders were cut by sharp branches, she still ran forward unremittingly.

On the last mile, they try to compete with another group.

The captain of the same team looked at Kelly, who was almost exhausted and was running at the last of the four-person group.

This is not good enough for him.

So he ran to Kelly and yelled:

Why are you doing it slowly, Thompson?Do you want me to carry your equipment?The captain knew Kelly's unyielding and stubborn personality very well, and he knew clearly what to say to stimulate her.

After hearing these words, Kelly immediately rushed to the front of the team and kept to the finish line.

Their team won first place in the endurance test.

When Kelly graduated from Air Force Academy, she was one of the few female students who had experienced the same training as male students.

This really opened her eyes.

Kelly found that the college did not only focus on physical adaptability, but on the overall performance.

Some students may have stronger and taller bodies than others.

Some students shoot more accurately during target shooting exercises.

Some people have a very good time in studying and exams, while others have better heads than others when they lack sleep.

Another group of people can withstand greater physical pain...

But this does not mean that one of them is more suitable for the battlefield, and the other is not; they are all accepted by the academy.

The Air Force Academy let Kelly understand that only when everyone’s strengths and weaknesses are complemented by each other can the soldiers’ strength be fully exerted.

******

Fourteen years later...

That is, when Kelly is told that women are "impossible!"'Four years have passed since he became a fighter pilot.She was twenty-six years old at this time.

After Kelly Thompson completed all the training, she was assigned to a flight squadron.

A total of thirteen fighters and thirty pilots - their mission is to destroy all enemy air units and ground forces without mercy.

She was the first woman to join this squadron, and there were more white female pilots joining.

Kelly and her affiliated flight squadron were immediately sent to the most dangerous front, although she did not take the word danger into consideration.

For a pilot, weapon control officer, or any kind of soldier, the work they usually do during peacetime is no different from what they do during wartime.

When the country is in crisis, the men and women who serve the country stand up and resist, and the people rely on them.

It is the duty of the soldiers and the army to avoid out of control of the situation and maintain the safety of the country, society and civilian owners.

Now is the time for Kelly to exercise her duties.

They came to a turbulent landlocked country, with enemies including warlords, jihadists, drug lords...

However, the main task of Kelly and others is to use excellent air force to assist friendly forces on the ground, and to dismantle terrorist forces through military operations and to root out these hateful enemies.

Kelly is fortunate to become a pilot in the first few flight practical missions.

Although she had experienced complete and rigorous training, she still felt a little uneasy.

Even though the battlefield was full of uncertainty, Kelly's fear did not come from the enemy's weapons; she only cared about whether she would make technical mistakes that put her and the entire squadron in shame.

After six months, Kelly not only did not make any mistakes, but also successfully completed all designated tasks.

During the mission, she had to stay on the plane for more than half a day, patrolling the air, waiting for the people on the ground to call for air support at any time.

She has provided CAS (Clse Air Supprt) for supply convoys, transport helicopters, and special forces.

Simply put, a soldier on the ground encountered a fierce attack, which was the moment when Kelly showed off her skills.

After a while, the only woman in the squadron gradually grew from a rookie to an experienced weapon.

Not only that, her judgment and performance in the air battle were excellent.

The superior also specially arranged for her to teach other new recruits, which is a hard-earned honor; because each teaching member is undoubtedly proficient in strategy and combat knowledge and skills.

Kelly got this position, which means that she has such strength and her colleagues respect her more.

According to a male pilot of the same level, he could not imagine that any other female pilots have achieved this achievement at present.

Kelly is one of the best weapons in the entire squadron, which also makes her the top candidates on the team who most hope to attend the mission together.

Six months later, Kelly was already one of the core members of her companions and was fully integrated into a team full of men.

And she also learned a lot of valuable combat experience during this period, which will prepare her for it, as Kelly and her flight squadron are ready to be transferred to another more dangerous war zone.

******

The war broke out.

This is not a small war on terror, the kind that Kelly has faced in the past six months; it is a real large-scale war combined with land, sea and air.

Modern warfare is a high-intensity confrontation. What the country needs is not an exaggerated number, but a professional army with precise training and equipment.

Otherwise, if there are only a million troops, it will only increase casualties on the modern battlefield.

This time, Kelly Thompson participated in the real war for the first time. At that time, she and the driver were patrolling at the enemy's territory at altitudes, and eventually received a request for close contact support from our troops.

A marine corps was violently suppressed by enemy artillery fire outside the city.

The enemy's attacks mostly come from a tight fortress that is as solid as a solid foundation.

The enemy used heavy machine guns, rocket launchers and various automatic weapons to deal with our soldiers, which made the latter unable to move at all.

This is a bloody and ruthless battle, with both the offensive and defensive sides trying their best and intending to destroy each other; and several casualties have appeared on Kelly's troops, and they are forced to make the choice to bomb the city.

Kelly is also the only fighter jet closest to within a radius of dozens of miles.

Kelly first received a communication from the Marine Corps.

As the other side was in a fierce gunfight, the communication between the two sides was interrupted by explosions and sporadic gunfires from time to time; in addition, many ground and air forces present were using this channel, and even the communications of other units were mixed in, making the transmission of messages more difficult.

In other words, only the weapons that are familiar with the body system and are calm in judging changes in the battlefield situation and face calmly can be used to make the most accurate bombing.

Kelly happens to have every trait she needs.

bomb!

She entered the coordinates and dropped the two thousand pounds of bombs loaded on the plane.

A silence suddenly came from the other end of the communicator; then what came into the ear was the excited voice of the Marines.

In the center of the red heart, he successfully destroyed the enemy fortress and the attack stopped!

Kelly smiled slightly, and then she and her plane returned to the airport to replenish fuel and prepare for the next battle; at the same time, the Marines on the ground were cheering.

They had just experienced a life-and-death juncture, but they broke the deadlock with just a short communication, erased the enemy from the ground, showing the perfect cooperation from ground forces and high-altitude fighter jets.

Every mission attendance makes Kelly proud of her work; she and her driver will always appear on the battlefield when our soldiers need it, give the enemy a quick and precise blow to successfully complete the task.

In this seemingly ordinary process, they undoubtedly saved countless lives.

When Kelly realized it, she had completed nearly a hundred combat missions and more than four hundred hours of flight time.

These include ten countries and hundreds of areas that have never been heard of before and have been flying high in high altitudes.

Looking back, Kelly found that more women followed her pace and were getting smoother and smoother.

Just when she was promoted to captain and thought that her life would develop smoothly

That day, Captain Kelly Thompson from the US Navy, along with her fighter planes, was wiped out in one breath along with the entire aircraft carrier fleet.

And the difference that no one in the world noticed was like a demon claw sweeping towards her under the shadow.
